Reaching out beyond our facility to touch lives and inspire learning is an ongoing goal for Pacific Science Center. The Science Center's partnership in the LASER (Leadership and Assistance for Science Education Reform) program is a critical component of this. Washington State LASER was developed in 1999 as a partnership between Pacific Science Center, the National Science Resources Center, the Washington State Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction, Pacific Northwest National Laboratories, and Educational Service Districts and lead school districts from across Washington state.

Mission: To assist school districts with implementing an ongoing, inquiry-based science program that is built on a research-based model of systemic reform and aligned with the Washington State Science Grade Level Expectations. For more information on Washington State LASER check →wastatelaser.org.
