    APPLICATION OPEN FOR 2023-2024.


    Los Angeles Unified was awarded the Amazon Future Engineer + BootUp Elementary Computer Science grant for Title I elementary schools. This is a service award (no money is awarded) that provides all of the support needed to implement computer science in elementary grades districtwide.

    The grant provides everything a school will need to implement a sustainable computer science initiative, including eight 3- hour professional learning workshops focused on Scratch (3-5) or Scratch JR (K-2), eight days of model teaching and/or coaching, curricula and teacher lesson plans.

    As part of the Amazon Future Engineer + BootUp Elementary Computer Science Grant participants will have the opportunity to establish professional growth goals that pertain to instructional design around computer science. Educators will participate in a series of learning sessions to reflect upon and refine their practices in computer science. Each session will provide participants an opportunity to engage as learners in exploring instructional practices that will empower them to provide personalized learning experiences as well as share their learnings with others. Additionally, these learnings will align with and support the District computer science initiatives.
