Students in New York City are headed back to school, and the Museum is ready for their return. Here at the Museum, we offer a variety of field trip options for students in grades pre-K–12, professional development opportunities for educators and programs for college students—all designed to make this school year enriching and inspiring for learners of all ages and abilities.

Schools, homeschool groups and after-school programs can bring students in grades pre-K–12 to the Museum for history and science programs. Led by Museum educators, these hands-on workshops explore a variety of topics, including the lives of sailors during World War II, the effects of microgravity on astronauts and the science of flight.

Our next p-credit course will show NYC DOE educators ways to incorporate the engineering design process into their teaching practice. The course will examine ship design, aircraft technology and design innovations in space science, all through the lens of the Museum’s exhibits.

We’re offering a new program this year just for homeschool groups. Our Homeschool Days will feature talks and activities for a range of ages and abilities. Coming up on September 16, students will explore Intrepid’s historic spaces and examine artifacts from the Museum’s collection to learn what it was like to live and work aboard the ship.
