In this poster, we describe the LSST Education and Public Outreach (EPO) program structure and how it will be used to promote classroom research projects, deliver an ongoing program of citizen science, and facilitate unprecedented visualization possibilities. LSST EPO programs are being developed that will actively engage a broad audience in many venues. We are emphasizing Internet-based activities to reach larger numbers of users, with additional face-to-face elements that enhance both classroom learning and informal learning experiences. The LSST project will provide cyberinfrastructure and web-based data access tools to enable student and public participation in the process of scientific discovery. In collaboration with the LSST Data Management group, an EPO database is being designed to accommodate anticipated user load and deliver required data products. These tools and products and their use in the prototype project Light Curve Zoo will be described.
