Recognition & Appreciation
OHSU's strong partnership with Saturday Academy

"Saturday Academy classes provide an excellent opportunity to kids in schools that they might not otherwise have."

OHSU has had a long term partnership with Saturday Academy
in a variety of ways including sponsorship, board membership, mentorship,
instruction, and volunteerism. Saturday Academy allows students (grades
2-12) to explore a multitude of topics from science, engineering and technology
to humanities and the arts through classes and camps and internships. One such
program is Saturday Academy’s Apprenticeships in Science and Engineering
Program (ASE) that matches high school freshmen, sophomores, and juniors
throughout Oregon and SW Washington with scientists and engineers for 8-week
internships in a professional scientific or engineering environment. OHSU has
fully participated with Saturday Academy’s ASE, classes, and camps, and has
served nearly 500 students in the last two years. We are fortunate to be able
to join forces with Saturday Academy in many ways and provide educational
supports for kids.
