Join us for our monthly Advanced STEM Club where we will experiment, explore, and learn while having fun exploring the principles of science, technology, engineering, and math!

In May we'll be learning about chemical and physical changes that happen in chemistry by experimenting with fire.

We offer two sessions of Advanced STEM Club @ La Plata on the third Wednesday and third Thursday of each month so that even more scientists can join in the fun.

Note: Please register each child who will be attending separately and only register for one session of Advanced STEM Club @ La Plata each month as both Wednesday and Thursday will be the same sessions.

Please email Sarah Anderson at sanderson@ccplonline.org with any questions.


Advanced STEM Club is a monthly program designed for children and teens ages 9 to 18. Younger participants may have difficulty with the projects and/or concepts. In this monthly program, participants are given the opportunity to explore the principles of science, technology, engineering, and math through fun and engaging experiments and lessons, led by CCPL staff. 

Advanced STEM Club is also offered at our Waldorf West Branch.
Check out our full schedule of STEM Club & Advanced STEM Club programs, here.
