This event will raise funds for needed technology equipment. Through its educational programs, which align with the 21st Century Skills Curriculum implemented throughout Novato Unified School District, the Center’s mission is to prepare and inspire youth to succeed.
Currently, the Center is the primary source of computer, printer and internet access to over half of the 150 students who attend after- school daily, and all day during the summer months. A technology update is needed to support their academic efforts, and the youth and teachers are putting on their dancing shoes to make this happen.
