SESA is run by students for any student eager to dive into science and engineering projects outside the classroom. This is your chance to turn theory into action and develop serious critical thinking skills!

Why Join SESA?

When you join SESA, you choose your path:

  • Competitor: Get involved in national science competitions.
  • Tutor/Tutee: Become a science tutor, or get free tutoring from your peers.
  • Service Club Projects: Work on hands-on science and engineering projects for the school and community (e.g., building worm farms, designing air rockets, or testing devices).

Develop Your Skills

Through collaborative group work, you’ll explore the world around you and develop critical thinking skills while working together to solve real-world problems.
