Enid, OK – August 12th, 2024 – Leonardo’s Children’s Museum is excited to announce the launch of its new Discovery After-School Programs: Drone Legends™ STEM Fundamentals and Art in Action: Perspective in Art. These programs offer enriching and interactive learning experiences for children in Enid and surrounding communities.
The Drone Legends™ program revolutionizes STEM education with its Turnkey Curriculum
Systems, designed by educators to align with the highest educational standards. The program aims to inspire students by embedding the mantra “Inside Every Child Lives a Legend” and encouraging a passion for STEM and Career and Technical Education (CTE). Highlights from the program include ten drone-themed STEM missions that foster teamwork, problem-solving, and innovation. Additional classes feature real-world drone pilots and learning opportunities.
Art in Action empowers students with a robust art curriculum that encourages creativity, critical thinking, self-expression, and resilience. This year’s theme, “Perspective In Art,” invites students to explore artistic techniques and cultural understanding through the works of renowned artists like Maurice Utrillo, Paul Cezanne, and Johannes Vermeer. Students will learn about art perspective, highlighting and shading, form, and 3-D perspectives. In addition, this program integrates with subjects like science, language arts, and social studies.
“We are so excited to once again fill our Education Annex with students that are excited about STEAM! We hope to continue to expand our educational offerings this school year and years to come,” said Charlet Ringwald, Leonardo’s Executive Director.
Drone Legends™ is scheduled for Tuesdays and recommended for students in grades 3rd through 6th, while Art in Action is scheduled for Thursdays and recommended for students in grades 2nd through 5th. Both programs run for 12 weeks starting the first week of September.
Full Scholarships and Partial Scholarships are available. These programs are made possible by a generous donation from the Whetstone Family Foundation. To find out more visit
