Sponsor Young Scientists at the Beaverton Science Expos 2025!
BEF and Beaverton School District are partnering to support young scientists through a robust 2025 Science Expo program. We want all students to be able to access high-quality learning opportunities in science. These events also help increase the diversity among young people who are interested in science and engineering.
Sponsors help make these Science Expos possible:
