Teachers' Advisory Board

The partners of the Arkansas Discovery Network rely on the advice of classroom teachers and other education professionals to ensure that the exhibits and the educational activities of the Network are valuable learning experiences. A Teachers' Advisory Board reviews the projects of the Network and recommends changes and improvements. The Board is made up of teachers and specialists from around the state and meets biannually to assess the progress of the Network.
