Greg Mertz, New England Innovation Academy Director of Innovation, has been named a 2026 MIT Morningside Academy for Design/WPS Teacher Fellow, which is an opportunity for educators in grades 7–12, across disciplines, to shape educational materials and contribute to meaningful open source design and making curriculum.
Working together across schools and content areas, fellows will be joining a vibrant learning community committed to reimagining K12 education. Hands-on design and making activities offer important transferable skills to a wide range of subjects — from math and science to English and history.
Congratulations, Greg!
