While STEM education has become a priority for K12 educators and policymakers, ensuring equity of access to high-quality STEM programs for all students remains challenging.

Attend this web seminar to learn some of the keys to building successful and equitable STEM programs that leverage robotics and coding. Leaders from Boston Public Schools will discuss the district’s “Excellence for All” (EFA) initiative, which is empowering Boston’s socioeconomically diverse student population through rigorous curriculum and enrichment opportunities, including cutting-edge STEM learning.

We’ll also be joined by two educators from Frisco ISD in Texas, who will discuss how the district built a successful robotics and STEM program that is significantly impacting student learning and achievement.
