Information and Resources for Educators

The Washington Pavilion of Arts and Science is a great educational resource for teachers and other educators. Each year we help hundreds of educators use our programs to make connections between student learning and state and national standards. In addition to these formal connections we help educators make informal connections between science and the visual and performing arts. Please check back on a regular basis as we continue to add resource information.
