    Students from a local school were bussed to the Nevada Air National Guard Base August 17, 2023 to be a part of STARBASE High Sierra. This is the first class of the 2023-2024 school year here in Reno, Nev.

    Created in 1991, STARBASE’s primary focus is to foster a passion of learning in STEM fields in fifth graders attending Title 1 schools. For those attending during the school year, students participate in a five-day curriculum that includes 25 hours of academic instruction and multiple “hands-on, minds-on” STEM activities. The students also interact with military personnel to explore different career paths and observe STEM being applied first-hand.

    Nevada’s STARBASE locations in southern and northern Nevada are overseen and managed by the State of Nevada Office of the Military and use civilian educators who lead the weeklong courses.
