This organization is a registered student organization of Cornell University.
The Graduate Student School Outreach Program (GRASSHOPR) pairs Cornell graduate students with teachers in Tompkins, Ontario, and surrounding counties to teach 3- to 5-session mini-courses on topics related to the graduate student's field or interests. Teachers and graduate students benefit from exchanging ideas as they develop a curriculum, while K-12 students experience new mentors eager to share knowledge and enthusiasm about their field of study.
The 2025-2026 fellow application will be opening in late August!
