STEMteachersNYC Working Groups
STEMteachersNYC working groups are FREE community spaces for colleagues to come together to share success stories and challenges from their classrooms and to collectively generate solutions. Each working group evolves to meet the goals of its participants. Some meet virtually, some in person, and some alternate between the two. Groups meet at times agreed upon among participants. All groups are co-facilitated by a rotating cadre of teachers. Don’t see a working group you are interested in? Start one!
