ISB Education, the education team at ISB, is advancing STEM education by bringing hands-on, real-world science into classrooms. Our innovative programs reach over 100,000 students and support more than 200 educators and administrators annually, driving systemic change in education.
The ISB Education team works tirelessly to bring cutting-edge science to every student. From dynamic “students as scientists” programs to comprehensive educator resources, our initiatives ignite curiosity and build confidence in future STEM leaders.
Your support can help ISB Education create a brighter, more scientifically literate tomorrow.
This summer at ISB, 12 college interns dove into research and a science-themed book club, while five education programs engaged 150+ high school students in hands-on learning, data science, systems thinking, and leadership – thanks to generous partners and supporters.
Since 2021, Claudia McLaughlin Ludwig and the ISB Education team have partnered with Washington Service Corps, an AmeriCorps program, welcoming four AmeriCorps members in various important roles over that timespan. The program will be paused for 2026. Join recent AmeriCorps members Sarah Clemente and Faduma Hussein in reflecting on their time at ISB and the importance of this program to their professional development.
