Fall Session
Hop on board the Mad Science express for a high-speed, hands-on science experience guaranteed to energize your mind! Explore the many facets of energy, forces, motion, potions, and yes…slime! Reach for your potential and ramp up your thinking about energy with gadgets, cars, and catapults. Discover how to make objects disappear and reappear as we unravel the mysteries of magic using science. Slide down the colorful pH scale and make liquids bubble, fizz, and pop. Learn the physics of optical illusions and build your very own periscope. Ooze into a gooey hour of sliming around as you discover the slimy properties of your favorite polymer. Act out hot molecule movements and discover some unusual applications of glow-in-the dark technology. Explore forces by making centrifuges, spinning gyroscopes, and building your own center of gravity game to take home. This program is so energizing, even gravity can’t keep you down!  Put your seat belt on…these energetic classes are going to make you have a blast!

Mad Science Program Policies
  • If an in-person class is cancelled due to inclement weather or other unforeseen circumstance, we will either schedule an additional class at the end of the session or tack on a double session at the end of the program.
  • No cash refunds will be provided if there is a cancellation of a class due to the COVID. In lieu of a cash refund, Mad Science will provide either a program credit or the option to receive the take-home that would have been offered as part of the class.

  • Please be aware of any exclusion date(s) the program may have.
  • Send a note or email to your child's teacher giving them permission to participate in the program.
  • Children will be dismissed directly from their classroom to the Music Room at the end of the school day.
  • The program ends at 2:15pm each week. Plan to come to the Music Room to pick up your child and sign them out with the instructor.
