Programs

A three-year path: Discover, Create, Lead.

360+ hours of rigorous, project-based technology instruction for grades 6–8 — equivalent to multiple college computer science courses, and aligned to AP Computer Science Principles. We don't remediate. We accelerate.

The Three-Year Curriculum

Each year builds on the last — coding, robotics, and drones all advance together.

6
Grade
Discover

Block coding → Python fundamentals

Students move from visual, block-based coding into real Python syntax — building the foundation every later year depends on. First exposure to the CS heroes whose work anchors the curriculum.

7
Grade
Create

Intermediate Python & APIs, machine learning, robotics engineering

Students work with real APIs and introductory machine learning, while building and programming physical robots with LEGO SPIKE Prime. AI ethics moves from a topic to a practice.

8
Grade
Lead

Drone programming & data science

Autonomous drone flight programming and computer vision, plus data science tooling (including Pandas) for working with real datasets. Students leave with a portfolio, not just a grade.

Three Threads, Every Year

Code & AI, Robotics, and Drone Tech run through all three grades.

01 / CODE & AI

Code & AI

Python from first principles through applied machine learning, with AI ethics woven in from day one.

02 / ROBOTICS

Robotics

Hands-on engineering with LEGO SPIKE Prime and Raspberry Pi — physical systems, not just simulations.

03 / DRONE TECH

Drone Tech

Autonomous flight programming and computer vision — the skill stack behind agriculture, logistics, and search-and-rescue drones.

Representation, By Design

Six CS heroes, woven through the curriculum.

Culturally centered content featuring Latino and Black scientists — so students see the field includes people like them before they ever apply to it.

How Students Learn

Built for a real classroom, not a lecture hall.

Game-Based Learning

Concepts introduced through play before they're formalized — including CodeQuest, Level Field's own browser-based coding game.

Collaborative Projects

Every unit includes a team build, not just individual practice sets.

Expert Speakers

Monthly sessions with working professionals in code, robotics, and drone fields — so "the field" is a person, not an abstraction.
