El Pomar Foundation
Co-sponsored by
Space Foundation Teacher Liaisons will receive space-themed, hands-on training that they can take back to their classrooms to better engage students in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM).
Teacher Liaisons are nationally recognized as space and science education advocates, serving as an active link between their school/district, NASA, and the Space Foundation. Teacher Liaisons receive many privileges, participate in special activities, and receive specialized training at Space Foundation and NASA workshops. Teacher Liaisons are invited to attend the 26th National Space Symposium at no charge to help inspire, enable, and propel their students to become the next generation of space explorers.
E-mail Education@SpaceFoundation.org for more information on the Teacher Liaison program.
