African American Academic Acceleration

A4 Summer Program Highlight: Math Camp

Math Camp is a coding and robotics bootcamp that teaches 5th & 6th grade students fractions concepts. Coding is the process or activity of writing a computer program. Students learned the new UC Davis C-STEM curriculum and Barobo, Inc., RoboBlocky coding program to demonstrate their knowledge and strengthen their fractions computational skills.

A4 Summer Program Highlight: Figures

Figures is A4's newest initiative for African American girls that focuses on STEM, coding and robotics.

We partnered with the UC Davis C-STEM Ujima Girl/Girl+ project for the coding, robotics, and project-based curriculum. See our summer highlights!

Our partners have been instrumental to our success and we couldn't be more thankful! We want to give a special shoutout to Springboard Collaborative for their exceptional collaboration during our summer reading programs and beyond. Their support has truly made a tremendous impact.
