About Us

Science Alliance is a district program that takes place at Monte Vista with the goal of helping the youth gain a deeper appreciation for the sciences.

Every year, Science Alliance organizes and runs a science program exclusively designed for fifth grade students in the area. The fifth grade students ("the buddies") are paired with high school honor students ("the mentors") to guide them with through advanced level science projects. Along the way, the students will develop basic skills in planning, executing, and reporting their activities. The culminating event of the year is a district-wide science fair, where the students can display their projects and show off their knowledge!

Although most of the Science Alliance activity culminates at Monte Vista, or the 2009-2010 school year, we are pleased to announce the opening of a new Science Alliance branch at San Ramon Valley High School! We hope to continue expanding with each coming year.
