As part of our work with Pace University and the National Science Foundation, we are asking the Billion Oyster Project community to help us promote an external survey for New York City middle school and high school students.
This online survey is voluntary, confidential, and asks for parental consent. The survey results will help us improve how we promote student interest in STEM activities and careers.
Remote Learning
As we continue to social distance this summer, here are some resources and activities to keep you curious about and connected to NY Harbor.
