Humanists of Linn County Science in the Schools 2022

Our Science in the Schools project raises money each year to donate science equipment to one middle school or high school in Linn County. Teachers select equipment which will create an exciting exploratory learning environment that facilitates development of critical thinking skills.

School teachers in the science, engineering, or computer science programs are eligible for a grant up to $1,000 for new equipment or materials. If you would like to donate to this grant, please visit out fundraising site.

Humanists of Linn County envision a world where science, reason, critical thinking, creativity, and compassion guide both public policy and personal accountability. By supporting and enhancing science education in public schools we are carrying out our mission.

2022 will be the seventh year we have provided science equipment to a middle school. Last year’s grant was awarded to Polk Alternative Education Center, Cedar Rapids Community School District.

The winner of the 2022 $1,000 grant will be announced in the coming months. We excitedly await choosing a school in Linn County that looks to augment their science curricula for the benefit of their students.
