About The High School Technology Program (HSTP)
The High School Technology Program (HSTP) is an intensive, 14-week technology education program designed for high school students who are curious about coding, web development, and careers in technology.
HSTP provides deeper technical training for students ready to level up their skills—whether they are brand new to technology or already experimenting with code on their own. Through hands-on instruction and real-world projects, students learn how to build websites, write code, and solve problems programmatically, preparing them for college-level coursework and competitive technology careers.
This winter/spring program meets students where they are and helps them grow through a structured, progressive learning pathway.
Students advance through multiple skill levels as they master key concepts in:
Programming (Python, JavaScript, HTML/CSS)
Web Development (front-end design and functionality)
IT Fundamentals (systems, troubleshooting, and technical support)
No experience is required to start. Each class builds on the last, preparing students for real-world tech projects and future competitions.
