The Baxter Symposium

Celebrating 15 Years!

Each year we host over 100 high school and middle school science teachers from Chicagoland for a day of learning, exploring cutting-edge science activities to bring back to the classroom, completely free of charge. In doing so, we hope that educators will feel empowered to bring the new tools they learned back into the classroom to enrich student experiences. 

 

 

 

Attendees have the chance to: 

  • Hear from our keynote speaker.
  • Explore hands-on lab activities, sessions on social and environmental justice, and more!
  • Meet other science teachers from the greater Chicago area.
  • Receive science goody bags for attending and enter lab equipment giveaways!
  • Earn up to 5 ISBE professional development credits for attendance. 

We look forward to showcasing 15 years of the Baxter Center with you!
