What Is PLTW?

The Project Lead the Way (PLTW) Gateway To Technology (GTT) program features a project-based curriculum designed to challenge and engage the natural curiosity and imagination of middle school students. They envision, design, and test their ideas with the same advanced modeling software used by companies like Lockheed Martin, Intel, and Sprint.

The knowledge that students gain and the skills they build from GTT create a strong foundation to further their science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) learning in high school and beyond. Throughout GTT, students acquire knowledge and skills in problem solving, teamwork, and innovation as well as explore STEM careers.
