Biotechnology Kit Loan Program


Since beginning the loan program in January 1996, nearly 15,000 Sacramento area students have participated in biotechnology laboratories. Forty-two teachers in twenty-three different schools take advantage of this program. Student evaluations have been overwhelmingly positive with 86% responding that they enjoyed participating in the laboratories and 58% stating that they would like to learn more about the subject.

Prior to receiving the kit, teachers must participate in an in-depth workshop illustrating the proper usage of the equipment and the science behind the activities. Any currently available workshops will be listed in the professional development section. Please contact Linda Curro for more information.

Note: kits are available for loan to schools in the greater Sacramento Valley area only.
