Our school district is very fortunate
to have a Starlab planetarium permanently housed at the Science
Center thanks to a donation generously provided by the District
123 Educational Foundation.
The Starlab is a favorite place
for our students to go during their Science Center visits. It helps
our students explore our galaxy and beyond. Some lessons include
legends, phases of the moon and planet awareness. We also use the
planetarium for lessons on the biological cell, plate tectonics
and latitude and longitude. Students are often given sky maps to
help them with further constellation identification while sky gazing
with their families.
