About the Project

Through this project, we aim to empower students with the skills and confidence to become tomorrow’s innovators. Our project intends to establish a comprehensive computer programming plan for all TK-6th grade students at James Foster Elementary. By providing access to physical computing tools (robots), we will enhance and build upon students’ understanding of coding, preparing them for success in the ever-changing digital age. This project will promote hands-on learning experiences through teamwork, collaboration, and problem-solving skills that are essential for their future endeavors. Opportunities for parent and stakeholder engagement will be integrated throughout the year, extending collaboration beyond the classroom.
