    The Christa McAuliffe Center for Integrated Science Learning at Framingham State University is hiring a team of part-time Program Facilitators. Program Facilitators will join full time staff in offering engaging, interactive science experiences for students in grades 5 to 9 in a newly renovated facility


    The Christa McAuliffe Center is a vibrant educational facility established in 1986 to honor the legacy of the first teacher in space, FSU alumna Christa McAuliffe '70. Today, the Center functions as a hub for much of Framingham State's informal STEM education and outreach serving students and educators across the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and beyond.
