Our Goals:

1. Develop regional integrated curricula for Grades K-8 that will target the knowledge and skills included in the NYS Computer Science and Digital Fluency (CSDF) Standards to ensure students are future-ready and well-equipped for college and career opportunities.

2. Increase teachers' knowledge and skills, and ultimately their confidence and comfort to teach computer science concepts (coding, computational thinking, and cybersecurity awareness).

3. Integrate CSDF standards into content areas to increase engagement and learning, resulting in increased 3-8 ELA and Math state assessment scores to close the gap of regional scores to the state.

4. Create a foundation for a school-to-career cyber workforce pipeline.
