Greetings Square Root Family,
We hope all is well and your day is off to a STEM-tastic start. We hold the health and safety of both our scholars and community paramount, and we always make sure to do our best to keep this truth at the forefront of our mission. With that being said, due to the health concerns around COVID-19 we will be postponing our 4th Annual Great STEM Summit to a later date.
GSS will be returning to the Sam & Bonnie Pannell Community Center April 11th, with our regularly scheduled program. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused and appreciate your continuous support of the Square Root mission.
Have a great rest of your day and stay curious friends!
