News & Announcements

The Challenger Learning Center's mission is to inspire the next generation. The center's programs use space simulation and role-playing to help students learn and apply STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) concepts through hands-on experiences.

The goal is to help students develop skills that will help them succeed in the future, and to inspire them to pursue careers in STEM fields.
