The annual Pasadena Unified School District Science Fest, which features a wide range of interactive exhibits designed to showcase the latest in the world of science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) will return this April 22 at John Muir High School.

“This is the largest scale ‘district-wide’ science fest so far and is the largest science fest type event ever organized within PUSD,” Dr. Warren Skidmore, head of the organizing committee for the event said.

The event, which will run from noon until 5 p.m. is free and open to everyone interested in STEM including students, parents, and members of the community.

All of the PUSD school sites are participating at the upcoming Science Fest. 

“Students will be able to see how the skills they are learning in class relate to applications in the real-world,” said Skidmore.

At the event, attendees will learn about STEM career pathways. They will also meet a series of international level speakers giving talks on a range of topics including science, technology and more.

Because the event will coincide with Earth Day — an event which celebrates the planet Earth and raises public awareness about environmental issues, environmentalists will also join the Science Fest.

High profile local politicians are expected to join the Science Fest, as per Skidmore.

Several Pasadena-based companies and organizations will be showcasing new innovations and technologies at the upcoming event.

“We specifically have groups from Caltech, JPL, SpaceX, Carnegie Observatories, Foothill Transit with zero carbon buses and Huntington Medical Research Institute.” 

“However all groups participating will have an emphasis on new technologies and development, so for firefighters, the military, medical groups, etc., they will try to show how new technologies are being employed.”
