To address the urgent needs for materials that arose during the 2020/2021 school year, the Hayward Science team put together a program to provide 5,000 science kits to students and Professional Development on how to best utilize those materials to 200 teachers throughout Hayward. You can learn more about that program by visiting our Science Kit website.
One of the many lessons we gleaned from the Science Kit program is that teachers are in critical need of supplies in order to effectively teach science. That’s why we are are continuing the program by providing classroom material sets and professional development to teachers to use during in-person learning. Global supply shortages delayed the launch of the program, but we are relaunching May 2022. If you are an HUSD teacher interested in participating, you can sign up here.
