Help me give my students hands-on science materials for STEM projects that spark curiosity, critical thinking, and a love of science.

FULLY FUNDED! Coach Cottone's classroom raised $200

My Project

Students in my classes are ambitious and motivated to succeed. Vast majority of my students are completing a college-bound curriculum. Parent and community involvement are very high, and academic success is encouraged throughout the community.

Hands-on science allows students to actively engage with scientific concepts through direct experience and experimentation.

By conducting experiments, building models, and observing real-world phenomena, learners develop a deeper understanding of scientific principles.

This practical approach enhances critical thinking, problem-solving, and teamwork skills, making science both more accessible and enjoyable. Additionally, hands-on activities help bridge the gap between theory and application, preparing students for future scientific learning and careers in STEM fields.
