| What Parents Say About DoD STARBASE |
|
"STARBASE exposes kids to possibilities. It generates excitement, and allows students to master skills needed to tackle problems with unknown outcomes. I also appreciate the encouragement of girls in these fields. For too long they have been denied the expectation that they would be competent in engineering, math and science. This early exposure to those possibilities is crucial. STARBASE is doing a great job in this area." (Parent, St. Paul MN) "My child attended STARBASE five years ago and is still talking about her experiences and relating it to her high school classes. She still proudly displays her STARBASE rocket. (Parent of former STARBASE student, Rapid City SD) "It helps promote drive and determination." (Parent, Whiting Field FL) "If all school was like this Alabama wouldn't just be #1 in football." (Parent, Maxwell AL) "Your presentation has sparked my daughter's interest in science. She is now approaching things with more complex thinking, wondering how things really work. Thank you for taking the time to share this information with our youth. It has made a positive impact." (Parent, Silverdale WA)
