NSSA at Mount Vernon

The Mission Our mission is to introduce the marvels of science to children on a systematic, frequent and regularly scheduled basis, enabling them to experience, explore and personalize the resulting discoveries. Science centers embedded in the community, embraced by the school system and freely available to children, parents and teachers alike have proven to be successful interveners needed in the metropolitan areas around the country. We seek to enhance the lives of at-risk children by providing them access and exposure to STEM learning.
