Our Participants Talk About NITARP

  • Paulsen

    I’m thinking I’ll have my 6th graders each do a project on an observatory in our astronomy unit. There are so many!

  • Benter

    It's awesome what [NITARP has] done over these 20 years. They definitely have a passion for teaching

  • Kate

    The experience made a huge impression on [my students] and that was food for my soul.
