Rochester Museum & Science Center: For Teachers

Home > For Teachers

Welcome Educators!

The RMSC education team will work with you to design the best possible programs to enhance and enrich your classroom experience, both for you—through Teacher Open Houses and Professional Development; and for your students— through exhibits, activities, shows, films, and even Camp-ins.

Bring your students here on a field trip, or we'll come to you (RMSC Delivers)!
