Welcome to the Space Education Camps of Utah which use the Space EdVenture Simulations created by Victor Williamson at the original Space Education Center at Central School, Pleasant Grove.  

Victor Williamson created the Space EdVenture Simulations methodology as a 6th grade teacher at Central School.  Using his unique curriculum, he founded the Christa McAuliffe Space Education Center in 1990. 

Victor Williamson retired from the Alpine School District in May of 2013 to build the next generation space education center called Farpoint.  Farpoint will be built at Renaissance Academy in Lehi, Utah and is scheduled to open in the Fall of 2014.

Classes and workshops start in the Fall of 2013.  The new simulators will open in the Fall of 2014 

When completed, Farpoint Station will consist of several new starship simulators, classrooms, a planetarium and theater.  
  


Farpoint Station will be Victor Williamson's newest space education center.  This 21st century learning center will integrate the arts and humanities with science, technology, math and engineering.

Become a Farpoint Cadet and Go Bodily into this new EdVenture!

A Salute from Central's Sixth Graders. I Get More Crap on my Last Full Day of School :) Space and Science News. The Imaginarium

Hello Troops,
Wednesday was my last full day as a teacher in the Alpine School District.  I spent the morning at Central Elementary playing MC at the school's dance festival.  Wednesday's dance festival was the last for Mrs. Heder an myself.  Mrs. Heder has been the festival's producer and director for many years.  I've always been the MC (except for last year - I finagled my way out by scheduling a field trip on dance festival day).  The weather was cloudy and overcast.  The thick gray clouds wanted to rain out the festival, but didn't.  It was a dance festival miracle.  Read the Entire Post
