Hartford Public Schools (Connecticut) was one of the first Code.org Districts! They are dedicated to offering students real-world experiences that enhance academic engagement, build technological skills, and foster leadership, all while preparing them for future opportunities. This past May, they hosted their largest STEM Fair yet, with over 380 students from 28 schools participating. The event featured virtual reality, drone activities, an Esports tournament, and more, with 100 additional science displays compared to last year.
Hartford proudly shared their Code.org District status with stakeholders and debuted Code.org's Music Lab at the fair, where students had a blast using coding to create music.
Hartford Public Schools is leading the way in expanding Computer Science Education, providing students with meaningful opportunities to explore and grow.
Way to go, Hartford Public Schools!
Be sure to follow their progress and achievements on social media!
We would like to recognize the incredible support of Hartford Public Schools' Regional Partner, Susan Auchincloss at Sacred Heart University. Under Susan's leadership, CS-PLAN, a collaborative initiative between Sacred Heart University and the Connecticut Department of Education, was launched in 2022. This program focuses on six key principles to help schools become CS-ready and scale K-12 computer science education. Thank you, Susan, and Sacred Heart University, for your unwavering partnership in expanding computer science education across school districts in Connecticut!
