Our Participants Talk About NITARP

  • Sartore

    [NITARP] is an amazing program you’ve put together! I feel like you’ve given us the keys, and we’ve got a license to explore the universe.

  • Curtis

    I think that more than anything else, hearing these kids talk about their work really convinced me how valuable this experience is for students.

  • Senson

    [working at the same level as the students] changes how you approach teaching. Being surrounded by people, whether they're older or younger, who are asking these awesome questions, it’s liberating.
