The Potsdam Public Museum provides teachers with kits that are valuable resources designed to supplement the elementary and secondary school curricula that meet New York State teaching standards.

 Requests for teacher kits take up to 1 week to process. When picking up a kit, keep in mind the process takes about 15-20 minutes as the museum staff is required to review handling instructions and check list. The kits are loaned for 1 to 2 week time periods. When retuning kits to the museum schedule time for staff to go over check list.

Teacher kits available include:

Early Photography 

Age of Homespun

World War I

World War II

School Days

Vanishing Professions

Potsdam Fire Department

Iroquois Indians

Colonial and Revolutionary Period

Potsdam and the Civil War

The Middle East and North Africa
