The Think Tank is an active learning laboratory where all students go to work with hands-on math activities and science experiments. The emphasis is on developing higher level thinking skills and broadening the scope of learning for all students in grades Kindergarten through 6th.

The Think Tank develops more positive attitudes about Science and Math and helps students learn to work independently and experience high levels of success.

The idea for the Think Tank (formerly known as the NEST) was developed in 1991 by a committee of parents and teachers. The PTA continues to be committed to the success of the lab.

Depending on grade level and curriculum, students get to spend up to an hour per week in the Think Tank and they love it! Our wonderful Think Tank teacher, Ms. Derrington, also provides advanced lessons for students in Math and Science. The lab even offers an opportunity for parents to get involved, as teacher assistants are vital to this enrichment program.
