The Washington State Science Teachers Association is an organization dedicated to advocating and promoting quality science education at all levels of instruction. 700 to 1,000 attendees are expected at the conference in Yakima. They will include teachers, local and state administrators and department chairs. Classroom teachers specializing in all grade levels, from kindergarten through university age, are represented.

Many teachers cross traditional age groupings.
