Teacher Centers

Located at IU 13 buildings in both Lancaster and Lebanon counties, teachers of all grade levels can find everything they need to create specialized educational materials for their students and classrooms. With hundreds of examples, a vast range of materials, and support by certified teachers on staff, these "Make and Take" centers provide a practical work space for teachers.

Bulletin boards, educational games, learning centers, and displays are among the projects teachers can complete from "start to finish" at the Teacher Centers. Most supplies are free to Lancaster and Lebanon County public school teachers. Many area nonpublic schools have memberships for their staff members as well. Educators from day-care centers, nursery schools, private schools, and home-school parents are invited to use the Teacher Centers for a small fee per visit. For additional information contact Karen Oberly at 717-606-1810.
