The NYC Center for Aerospace and Applied Mathematics (NYCCAAM) is a New York City Public Schools experiential-learning centre at 220 Henry Street on the Lower East Side that teaches STEM through space and aviation science. Students in grades 1 to 12 fly simulated space missions in its Challenger Learning Center or study how aircraft fly in the NASA Aerospace Education Laboratory, using flight simulators, a wind tunnel, model airplanes and specialist software. Alongside single-day class visits, extended in-school and after-school programs in aviation, engineering and robotics, and educator professional learning, NYCCAAM runs week-long camps over spring and summer break. Its published pricing and booking process is per class for schools; camp dates, hours and family registration are not posted.

Powered by Googlea New York City Department of Education facility set up a STEM discovery center... on a recent school trip all students were engaged and enthusiastic... will definitely recommend for a half day or full day trip
Best trip I’ve ever went to ! The activities were “out of this world” 🤧
Excellent learning that schools will not provide! Luck based lottery and I was one of the lucky ones who got in. Totally worth writing an application to! Walk from train station (East Broadway) is not a very far walk, but does smell bad, but that doesn't really matter. Your child will love this camp, I promise.
I never wanted to leave, it was like the best place on earth. It was awesome, the EV3s were a great part of this place. At some point, there was a mission - a space craft and mission control.
They have flight simulators for the kids! This is really a great place for school trips.
