Student research is only possible if teachers have the science supplies, materials, and equipment for students to use. Science Coach is committed to doing all that we can to ensure that’s the case in each of our teacher classrooms. In addition to providing them with a budget to purchase materials, we also offer teachers free supplies throughout the year. For this we rely on the generosity of individuals and companies for in-kind donations. See below for a list of science supply items in demand every school year. We’ve also made it possible to shop virtually via our Teacher Wish List.

As for used equipment and materials, what companies and professional labs may regard as obsolete is often a considerable improvement to what’s found in most classrooms. So if you’re upgrading, consider donating your used equipment and consumable supplies to Science Coach.
