Learning Blade is truly a phenomenal resource. With its robust amount of exploratory curriculum, students are able to engage in a wide range of opportunities. Being in a rural area, we are often not exposed to what is happening along the coasts, but through Learning Blade, our students are able to experience and explore these types of opportunities.

Learning Blade is an incredible program. Students gain strong foundational knowledge through the online interactive lessons and then bring that learning to life with exciting hands-on projects. My students were extremely engaged and had an amazing time building the submarines and completing the mission.

There are so many resources in Learning Blade for educators in my region. I am so excited to know that you have resources for Summer Camp as well. This will be so helpful for my educators, especially those who have limited curriculum resources.

Learning Blade teaches students about career pathways in the STEM field. It gives students the opportunity to learn about STEM pathways during their middle school years which they are often times seldom exposed to.
