Children's Science Center

What a night! Thank you to our partners, SPARK, The Education Foundation for Prince William County Public Schools and Prince William County Public Schools, for inviting the Children's Science Center to your Business Partner of the Year Awards. Dr. McDade wowed and inspired us all with her State of the Schools Address. Laahiri Chalasani and I were honored to be in such good company, all dedicated to the same purpose and mission. #LaunchingThrivingFutures #STEMEducation #STEMforall
