A year-long professional learning program building interdisciplinary, computationally-rich projects centered on student creativity and real-world problem-solving
What is the Innovation Hub Fellowship?
The Innovation Hub Teacher Fellowship Program is a year-long professional learning experience for middle school teachers at Charlottesville Middle School.
