Calling all doctors!<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h1>\n

Kids will learn all about becoming a doctor through engaging hands-on activities in this unique after-school program. These future doctors will learn the anatomy and functions of the heart and lungs, what is in a doctor\u2019s bag, and more. Students will go home with models, worksheets, and their own stethoscopes! We will begin with a white coat ceremony and end with a graduation ceremony.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This is an experience full of STEM-based learning, activities, and crafts.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

Our teachings are based on STEM principles. We aim to ignite the passion of future healthcare heroes and get them excited about how the body works, as well as the importance of health! Your child will return home with materials to show you what they learned. Of note, all the necessary materials for each class are provided to students. At the end of the session, the program ends with an informal graduation ceremony where each student receives a personalized diploma.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
