East Bay Science helps schools in central Alameda county host their own museum quality science nights for free.

Charlie Reynes, a former elementary science specialist, a 2007 California Teacher of the Year, and a recipient of the 2008 Presidential Award for Excellence in Science Teaching created East Bay Science as a retirement project. He helps schools present their own science night. His goal, to build school community while making hands-on science accessible, touchable, and fun.  

Here's How I help your school: 

• Science Night Your multipurpose room will be filled with science activities for the whole family to enjoy (See photos). Students and their caregivers will engage with more than twenty high interest, hands-on science exhibits. EBS, Charlie Reynes) provides four set ups of each exhibit so there's always something new and exciting for students to explore.  

• The school is hosting the event.  The school  provides the community, the facility, and  student  passports (I provide a pdf) and supervision.   East Bay Science provides the activities- for free.
