My Students

"A good teacher can inspire hope, ignite the imagination, and instill a love of learning." - Brad Henry

What an amazing opportunity for my students to have resources that we do not already have to use for learning and growing.

We are part of a Title I school where everyone qualifies for free breakfast and lunch. Our kids love to have fun and learn. We want to give every kid the opportunity to learn more and be good at what they do. We want them to leave school feeling successful in everything they do.

My Project

Jumpstart Python course, students will learn to write in one of the world’s premier programming languages, using innovative hardware microcomputer and challenging, relevant projects. This course will establish a robust foundation in computer programming, and teach good coding habits from the start.

What a great hands-on experience.

Our learning platform, CodeSpace, features intuitive error messaging, and a professional debugger, so students are empowered to diagnose and correct their own errors before asking for help, while step-by-step coding lessons and open-ended projects allow students to work at their own pace.

Help me give my students an advantage of learning through a fun and exciting product.
