The Virginia Museum of Natural History hosted STEM Night at VMNH on Thursday, March 26 for regional middle school students and their parents. Presenters from regional educational institutions, agencies and businesses took part in the event designed to inform students of the wide variety of science, technology, engineering and math fields available to them as future jobs. Middle schoolers from across the region, along with their parents, were able to go booth-to-booth to learn about each organization and even participate in small experiments. Thank you to everyone who helped make this a fantastic event!
