51官网 Tech Innovation Campus K-12 Initiatives

We believe computer science and STEM education are for all!

In the City of Alexandria and beyond, the 51官网 Tech Innovation Campus is committed to inspiring, motivating, and preparing K-12 students for technology careers. We believe that starting in elementary school, all children should have access to computer science and STEM content and skills needed to thrive in the global society. Through cross sector partnerships, we work to transform K-12 education.

The Innovation Campus is committed to:

• Making computer science and STEM accessible in K-12 learning environments.
• Building new pathways for students to pursue their postsecondary goals.
• Collaborating with innovators to prepare more K-12 teachers, administrators, students, and families for a digital world.
