#firsthack for grades 5 to 8

Learning Pathways Project, Inc. is pleased to present #firsthack – the first hackathon to be primarily focused on middle school students as its audience. Unlike the run of the mill hackathon, #firsthack is creatively engineered so that each middle school team will be paired with a high‐school mentor. Teams will receive guidance and support from idea conception and design to development and presentation, a strategy intended to help young students learn valuable skills and content while simultaneously boosting their confidence
