Catherine Bischoff  I am the STEAM coordinator for grades pre-K through 12. I teach physics and biology at the middle and high school levels at Rye Country Day School, a private school in New York.  My fundamental goal as a teacher and administrator is to help students understand the world around them, develop a lifelong curiosity about how the world works and promote their natural inquiry skills.  I am passionate about involving my students in local citizen science projects and exposing them to authentic research within and outside the classroom curriculum. I live in CT with my husband and twin teenage daughters.
