Connect with other Students!

We’d love for you to join us in our Supercharged Science Grades K–8 Google Classroom! This private space is where students can share their projects, post photos of experiments, ask science questions, and connect with other curious kids in the program.

You'll still need to go to the main Science website for all links, handouts, classes, and recording. Google classroom is meant for students to stay connected with each other in a fun and safe way outside of live classes and to see what other families are working on.

Connect with other Parents!

Parents, we’d love for you to join our Supercharged Parents Google Classroom! This private community is designed just for you — a place to stay updated on class calendars and schedules, get curriculum help, connect with other families, and receive important announcements about special events.

You’ll also find resources on how to best support your student at home, plus a space to share feedback and suggestions. It’s the easiest way to stay connected and make sure you always have the tools you need for a successful homeschool year.
