"Students were very interested in the ways technology impacts us in our everyday lives. Our overview of AI really sparked a lot of interest and questions from our students. Emily did such a great job working with our students and providing explanations in ways that they could understand. Her ability to connect with students allowed for natural engagement and helped fostered a space of safe learning. "

"Peace Community Center partnered with Evo Learning Academy to take high school Scholars on a field trip to Microsoft Campus during our Summer Learning Academy.
The Microsoft tour and AdaFruit coding activity was a fantastic way to get our Scholars excited about computer science and engineering.
Some additional highlights included meeting local team members at Microsoft, hearing how students can start getting ready for a career in this field, and lunch time. Overall, it was a wonderful experience and we hope to collaborate again!"
