High School Technology Program (HSTP)
HSTP Explained
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.
Students Advance 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.
HSTP Classes Begin in February 2027.
Classes are held online via zoom on Saturday mornings from 10 AM - 12 PM.
