Racing the Sun teams get hands-on mentorship and learning at various stages throughout the nine-month program. At Workshop Day, students get to learn in-depth about how to work on different components of their karts.

October Science of Kindness with and SARSEF!

Ben's Bells’ programming is grounded in the science of kindness and research that shows how practicing kindness strengthens individuals, relationships, and communities. Those same principles of curiosity, observation, and evidence are at the heart of science education supported by SARSEF.

“My project is about how teens nowadays struggle with mental health and how the spread of positivity in which is surrounding them will help and motivate them.”

Every year, students from across Arizona create their own research projects about topics that they care about. This month's spotlight project about kindness and mental health is Positivity Posters by Cooper Bryant, grade 7. Check out the entire project at the SARSEF virtual fair: https://virtualfair.sarsef.org/2026/positivity-posters/

Got plans for November 20th (it's a Friday). NOW YOU DO! We need volunteers to help us at AZ STEM Adventure, one of the largest STEM events in Southern Arizona! Every year, SARSEF welcomes ~1,000 4th-8th grade students to Pima Community College Northwest Campus, where they get to spend a day being scientists and engineers of all kinds.

We need a lot of volunteers to make the day happen. Tell your friends and make it a day of service to help young scientists and engineers explore new topics in STEM and get hands-on beyond the classroom.

Volunteers will be able to help us from 7:30 - 11:15 AM or 10:45 - 2:30 PM on November 20th, 2026.

Head to https://sarsef.org/volunteers/general-volunteers/ and click on the AZ STEM Adventure opportunity to learn more and register.

SARSEF made the trek up to Flagstaff for the a few weeks ago! We brought out our LEGO derby track and did a workshop about science fair projects. As always, the derby track was a hit!
