Rural students are being exposed to science and opportunity thanks to a new initiative.

Students in rural areas have deficits in access to science curriculum when compared to their peers in urban areas. According to some, this adversely impacts student outcomes and college readiness. A new initiative from the Morehead Planetarium and Science Center crosses the state with Saturdays of Science to give rural students a boost.
