2024 Summer of Science blasts off, engages more students than ever before
Hope Street Margolis Family Center's Summer of Science program helps more than 120 children explore STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics) subjects and careers.
Hope Street Margolis Family Center’s Summer of Science kicked off on June 19 with a long line of eager students and parents ready to embark on an exciting season of learning and adventure. With 120 youth registered and a growing waitlist, this year's program will explore weekly themes including engineering, biology, arts and culture, and various other STEAM subjects.
Now in its tenth year, Summer of Science is a seven-week program focused on enhancing students' math and science skills, crucial for a strong foundation to succeed in high school and college. The daily schedule also includes an array of art, music, dance and recreational activities. Dignity Health - California Hospital Medical Center’s investment in Summer of Science underscores its commitment to family health and the well-being of children and youth in Los Angeles.
Each day begins with a hot lunch served in our park, allowing students and staff to socialize and build relationships before diving into classes at Hope Street. The schedule also includes field trips to state and city parks, as well as museums and venues across southern California.
This year, Hope Street is thrilled to welcome several alumni as staff and interns. Having pursued higher education across the United States, they have returned to inspire the next generation of Hope Street graduates.
Summer of Science is 100% supported by generous donors like you. Support Hope Street’s transformative health care programs by donating today or by attending the Champions for Children Dinner on Thursday, September 12 at Jonathan Club. To learn more, visit HopeStreetFamilyCenter.org.
