The Explore Jr. program is on a two-year rotating schedule. Each season of Explore Jr. operates between the months of September and May. During a season, the science programs provided in the fall will be identical to the programs offered in the spring. Many Explore Jr. programs sell out and this allows for multiple opportunities for families to attend the programs. The September 2023 – May 2024 season of Explore Jr. will be covering Year 2 topics. For students ages 11 to 18, check out the Explore Days page for more information. Please refer to the individual Explore Jr. topics for more information and to register.
