Youth Science Institute careers

We offer School and Group Programs, Summer Science Camps, weekend Science Safaris, and annual community events. Many of our programs include live animals and nature hikes. Each year, we deliver inquiry-based life, physical, earth, and social science to nearly 30,000 pre-K to sixth-grade students. Since our founding in 1953, we have served hundreds of thousands of children.

We also offer Science Safaris as a family event. These safaris allow families to get into nature, do fun nature- related arts and crafts, and conduct experiments based on the topic for that event.

Science Saturdays are a one-day 4 hour program where children ages K-6 attend and learn about a specific topic, meet live animals, enjoy a nature walk, and do fun arts and crafts together.

YSI also hosts Holiday Camps and Summer Camps! Schedule is based on the time of year, and various topics are available for families to choose from. Camps cater from PreK-6th for Summer Camp and K-6th for Holiday Camps.
