Hands-On, Future-Ready Learning
Our Curricula
Made to spark curiosity, build digital fluency, and prepare school communities to thrive in a tech-driven world.
Our curricula are the perfect blend of technology usage, creativity, and real-world learning. Each program is designed to do more than teach skills—it helps school communities connect, collaborate, and grow.
✔ Technology in Action: Students don’t just learn about technology, they use it to create websites, design digital art, build games, and explore AI. Parents gain confidence navigating laptops, apps, and online platforms, while educators practice integrating tech into their classrooms.
✔ Creativity at the Core: Every project encourages imagination and problem-solving. Whether it’s a student coding their first game, a parent designing a résumé in Canva, or a teacher discovering new classroom tools, technology becomes a canvas for expression.
✔ Real-World Connections: Our programs connect directly to ELA, math, science, and social studies—showing learners how technology applies to academics, careers, and everyday life. This ensures participants don’t just use tech, but understand its purpose and power.
✔ Community Impact: By engaging students, families, and educators, our curricula strengthen entire school communities. When everyone has access to meaningful tech learning, the digital divide begins to close.

Why This Work Matters
This work matters because too many students, especially Black, Latino, low-income, and girls, are being left out of the tech world before they even get started.
Our communities make up over 40% of the U.S. but hold less than 20% of STEM jobs. Many families still don't have access to devices, internet, or the tech skills they need.
Since 92% of jobs now require tech skills, we need to prepare our communities for school, work, and the future.

Between 2022-2023, only 38% of NYC students took a computer science course-rates are even lower in high-needs schools.
Who We Serve
Our curricula are built for entire school communities. By engaging students, families, and educators together, we create meaningful learning experiences that build skills, confidence, and connection.
For Students: Hands-on projects turn learning into discovery. Students code websites, build games, design digital art, explore AI, and practice digital citizenship—developing creativity, problem-solving, responsibility, and future-ready skills.
For Families: Workshops make technology simple and empowering. Parents and caregivers gain confidence with everyday digital tools, learn online safety, and strengthen their ability to support children’s learning.
For Educators: Professional development builds digital confidence for teachers and staff. We provide strategies for classroom tech integration, project-based learning, and practical tools that make teaching more engaging and effective.
