“This program allows for science to come alive for students. They do hands-on experiments, practice engineering and design skills, and even get to tour McEntire to learn about different military and STEM careers. Many of our students would never get to experience these in a regular classroom, which makes this program invaluable.”
-Mrs. Marthers, Doby’s Mill Elementary

"I love going to STARBASE because of Eggbert. We had to protect him from cracking with all these supplies so we could launch him across the room. We named ours Hummpy Dumpty the 3rd. We had so much fun.” -Veronica
“My favorite part of the STARBASE program is that the teachers here explain things carefully, they never leave people out in anything.” -Lorisha-Mae
