Outreach opportunities enrich the work we do in the classroom. They offer students the chance to put theory into practice, to learn from one another, from other educators, parents, and children - especially the children! Whether it is assisting with a field trip to the Cayuga Nature Center or the Ithaca Science Center, or helping a child with math problems, our students are very present in area schools. Each year, our students and faculty volunteer thousands of hours of their time and talents to area schools. Join our community and get involved.
Educational Outreach
Ithaca College students learn very early on in their studies with us that we are all responsible for helping to shape the education our children receive. Our public schools belong to us, and we share the task of helping all children learn to the very best of their abilities.
