Education has been an integral part of the Observatory’s mission since our founding in 1932. Today, the spirit of exploration lives on, that quest for learning burns bright, and our passion for education is stronger than ever before.

We are proud to develop and offer a diverse, innovative offering of educational programs and resources, created by our experts in weather and climate. From virtual programs to custom presentations delivered onsite to your audience, summit adventures, weather station tours, professional development, and our Extreme Mount Washington museum, we are committed to increasing science literacy, helping our audiences better understand how weather and climate affect the natural world.

“I think this was probably the first time any of the
students had thought about data science. They realized that graphs aren’t
just a math class exercise but that they actually tell stories.”

– Science teacher Patti Dugan-Henriksen
