Math, Science Day for Latino Youth
California Museum of Science and Industry’s “Dia de la Familia” from noon to 5 p.m. Saturday is designed to stimulate interest in science, math and related careers among Latino youth.
Events will include museum tours, a panel discussion by Latino parents who have children in science and technology careers and a showing of “Stand and Deliver.”
“Dia de la Familia” is sponsored by the museum and the National Council of la Raza in association with the Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers, the Hispanic Women’s Council, Latino Resource Organization and California Assn. for Bilingual Education.
The museum will introduce its Success in Science program, which is funded by a $90,000 federal grant and a $5,000 grant from the Assn. of Science-Technology Centers.
