About The Tech Academies
-
Since 2014, we have supported a network of model STEM programs and Engineering Education Leaders that nurture the next generation of Silicon Valley innovators. Our goal is to systemically integrate K-12 STEM education opportunities in our 10 school districts and the expanded learning programs serving these districts, particularly for those populations traditionally underrepresented in STEM.
We are grateful to our Tech Academy schools, expanded learning programs and key partners who helped us launch and develop this program. These trailblazers include: Boys and Girls Club of Silicon Valley; Catholic Charities of Santa Clara County; City of San Jose; City Year San José/Silicon Valley; Sacred Heart Community Service; Think Together; YMCA of Silicon Valley;
