Our Junior Architects and Engineers Program
is continuing this coming school year, and
parents are welcome to reach out to their
children’s school to encourage
participation.
This
past year, the Department visited elementary
schools in every borough -- and taught more than
150 second, third, fourth and fifth graders
about how buildings are constructed in New York
City. Students finished the program by visiting our offices --
and spending time on a construction site with
our experts.
