The New York Hall of Science (NYSCI) and Bank Street Graduate School of Education are partnering to offer a special opportunity for K–2 teachers: three linked courses designed to help educators bring active, hands-on STEAM learning into their classrooms. Together, these courses are worth 3 graduate credits from Bank Street Graduate School of Education (equivalent to 45 CTLE hours) and lead to a Bank Street STEAM Certificate upon completion. Participation is free, but space is limited to just 10 educators. Teams of at least two teachers from the same school are encouraged to apply, and participants must be available to attend all three courses. Application Due: November 15, 2025 | Orientation: Thursday, December 4, 2025 from 5:00–6:00 PM | Courses: January–May 2026.
