The GEMS Center has been designated by the Great Explorations in Math and Science(GEMS) Program, Lawrence Hall of Science, University of California at Berkeley.

GEMS Center...What is it?

Great Explorations in Math and Science (GEMS) is a growing national resource for the advancement of activity-based science and mathematics. GEMS activities are developed at the Lawrence Hall of Science at the University of California, Berkeley, and modified for classroom use. The new GEMS center located at the Stanislaus County Office of Education is the result of a collaborative effort between the University of California, Merced; the GEMS Program of the University of California at Berkeley's Lawrence Hall of Science, and the Stanislaus County Office of Education.

Director: To Be Announced
