Our Education Initiatives
The Flagstaff Festival of Science strives to connect STEM and STEAM experts with K-12 students and teachers in Flagstaff and across Northern Arizona. Through our In-School Speaker Program, we match K-12 teachers with STEM/STEAM professionals who can bring science to life in their classrooms and spark a life-long interest in STEM/STEAM topics, often reaching youth who are underrepresented in these fields.
Whether virtual or in person, our education initiatives connect thousands of youth every year with the joys of scientific discovery!
In-School Speaker Program
If you are a STEM or STEAM professional who would like to be a presenter for the In-School Speaker program, the Presenter Registration for next school year (2025-2026) is now open. The registration deadline is August 1, 2025.
With your expertise and passion brought to life in the classroom, you can inspire students to develop a deeper interest in science and pursue careers in STEM/STEAM fields. By highlighting your real-world applications of scientific knowledge, you can motivate students to explore their curiosity and pursue further learning opportunities.
If you are an educator who wants to take part in the In-School Speaker program and be matched with a STEM/STEAM speaker, the Educator Registration form is currently closed, but stay tuned for the registration link to open in mid-August for the 2025-2026 school year.
If you miss out on the In-School Speaker Program, check out our Speakers Bureau for a list of Flagstaff area STEM/STEAM professionals who are generally available throughout the year for either in-school or public speaking engagements and willing to be contacted directly.
