They have seen the power of our approach at work. We welcome high school teachers who cover at least one of computer science, mathematics, and the physical sciences. We ask that you first contact your school to determine whether they will allow you to make curricular changes based on the summer course. You should find out what obstacles you will face from your school if you decide to adopt this curriculum. We also welcome college and university faculty.
