The Society for Analytical Chemists of Pittsburgh (SACP) was organized 1942 to advance analytical chemistry through science education. Its sister society is the Spectroscopy Society of Pittsburgh (SSP). The SACP is dedicated to the education of their membership, of the community and of future scientists from kindergarten through college.
The purpose of the Elementary/ Middle School Science Olympiad Program (EMSSOP) is to excite, inspire, challenge, and foster the fun side of science for all elementary students of all abilities. The Elementary/Middle School Science Olympiad Program grant is available to provide seed money to help elementary and middle schools develop and implement an inclusive science olympiad program within their school.
A Science Olympiad consists of different hands-on events where students take an active role in exploring science topics related to the school’s science curriculum. The events can be scheduled to occur as half-day up to three-day competitions. The program helps students of all abilities succeed in science by making science fun and exciting. It is designed for students in grades 4 through 7; however, it can be adapted to include lower grade levels. Each event in a Science Olympiad, either competitive or non-competitive in design, meets the current National Science Standards, as well as the Science Standards set by the Pennsylvania Department of Education.
