Our Holistic Approach
-
Nutrition
Students cannot learn when hungry. We provide each student with a nutritious meal every day.
-
Computers
Every child is equipped with a powerful laptop, headphones, and, if needed, an internet grant.
-
Whole Child
Take care of the mind, and the body will follow. We provide access to free therapy and mental health resources.
-
Culturally Relevant
Our curriculum is custom-made for the communities we serve. Students will also learn about finances, black history, becoming a leader, and more.
Looking for an intern?
The average household income for the neighborhoods we serve is $20,000. A tech internship from your company could double to triple a family's income.
Get Paid.
Our students complete paid internships at local startups and prestigious organizations such as MIT, Microsoft, and the US Embassy. Interns earn an average of $17/hour while still in high school.
Tour the country.
Exposure is everything. Students go on cross-country trips to tour the tech offices and meet with industry professionals.
