JPL EDUCATOR RESOURCE CENTER RELOCATES TO POMONA
The Educator Resource Center of NASA's Jet Propulsion
Laboratory has relocated from JPL to 1460 E. Holt Avenue, Suite

designed to provide assistance and resources to educators from
the elementary through college level, with an emphasis on
America's space program.
Center goals include planning and implementing workshops for
educators to acquaint them with NASA/JPL educational material and
resources; becoming involved in collaborations, cooperative
agreements and associations with school districts, state
education agencies, colleges and universities; and distributing
NASA/JPL educational materials and resources to the educational
community.
The storefront Educator Resource Center facility, part of an
agreement between JPL's Education Affairs Office and the Pomona
Unified School District, is open to educators from 8 a.m. to 5
p.m. Monday through Friday (other hours by appointment).
For further information, call the Center at (909) 397-4420.
