The Cabrini Science Squad sparks students’ interest and curiosity in science with interactive, hands-on activities brought directly to area classrooms or held in Cabrini's science classrooms and labs. This complimentary science outreach program is sponsored by the Cabrini High School Science Department under the direction of Mrs. Kasey Dennies.
From chemistry and physics to life and environmental sciences, Science Squad activities are led by a Cabrini science teacher and team of students. Simply choose from topics listed below or request one suited to the needs of your class. Science Squad will come to your classroom fully equipped with an engaging activity and all the materials necessary to excite your students about science! Or, if you prefer, you can bring your class to visit the Science Squad at Cabrini High School.
