Planting a love of science

The Science SeedTM is a science enrichment program that teaches geology, chemistry, biology, physics, nature and nutrition in fun, interactive and age-appropriate ways.

Based in Arlington, VA, our program is designed to develop a love of science that will last a lifetime. Children are natural scientists, curious and full of the desire to observe and explore. Preschool and early elementary are the perfect times to start a lifelong love of science by introducing students to basic concepts.

"My 3 year old is taking this class through Arlington DPR and loves it – he’s been getting up in the morning and asking to go to science class. He really impressed his grandmother and aunts with his knowledge of gravity."

"Thanks for your terrific teaching which has inspired my children’s deep interest in science! My son is the type of kid who would never talk about school at home to us. The only exception is after he has your class. Then we hear all about it with his non-stop talking at dinner table...."
