Every student. Every classroom. Every year.

Beginning in PreK, students build the knowledge, skills, and confidence to use technology purposefully, responsibly, and independently. They learn to create, think critically, solve problems, communicate and collaborate, research information, and understand how technology connects to their lives and communities.

Digital Literacy & Computer Science learning grows with our students.

From their earliest experiences exploring technology to increasingly independent opportunities to create, program, design, research, and solve problems, students build their skills and understanding from year to year.

DLCS in Action

Ask • Create • Collaborate • Test • Explain • Reflect

In DLCS classrooms, students are active learners who use technology with purpose. They ask questions, create and test ideas, solve problems, collaborate with others, and reflect on their learning.

Technology is the tool. Learning is the goal.
