Scientific paper

I discuss various ways that amateur astronomers can contribute to science education in their local school districts, focusing on using astronomy as a hands-on way to teach observational and applied science, mathematics, and science reporting and writing. I also discuss projects, telescope building, lectures, planetarium studies, and star parties. The AAVSO project "Partnership in Astronomy" is featured.
