Elementary Outreach Program
Volunteer
THE ELEMENTARY OUTREACH PROGRAM provides the opportunity for elementary school
students in the Frederick County Public School System to receive supplemental
science training through hands-on experiences in the classroom.
Volunteer teams of employees from the National Cancer Institute (NCI) at Frederick
provide experiences involving scientific expertise and equipment not normally
available within the elementary schools in Frederick County. The lessons are
planned to complement the school curriculum and are coordinated with the administrators
of the school system. The opportunity to enlighten the students about careers
in scientific research is an important aspect of the program. The volunteers
are from both administrative and scientific backgrounds to let the students
know that a career in science does not always mean being a bench scientist.
