NYFPS serves New York State students in elementary through high school by teaching a process driven approach to creative problem solving and helping them develop essential skills to become emerging leaders.
Our Work
NYFPS serves and impacts a diverse population of students across New York State. The diversity of students reached by our program enables us to have a broader impact. We recognize the need to provide underserved communities with more educational opportunities, especially a program which teaches essential skills such as critical thinking and problem solving, so NYFPS has focused on expanding the reach of Future Problem Solving to these groups.
Our program focuses on three key areas to enable us to succeed in our mission: Education, Competition, and Engagement.
Our Community
NYFPS is made possible by the people who make up its community. Our team is comprised of a diverse group of individuals with strong backgrounds in education, STEM, executive leadership, strategic planning, and more. Additionally, many alumni of the program continue to contribute to the community by sharing their Future Problem Solving experience. Educators, parents, our partners, and volunteers build the foundation for students' success in the program from enhancing classroom instruction to supporting student competition events.
