Sometimes a prize can become something much bigger.

At Kids Tech Day, an iPad was more than something to take home. It became another tool for learning, creativity, exploration, and opportunity.

Moments like this remind us why access matters. When young people have the tools and opportunities to explore technology, we help open doors to what comes next.

Save the date: March 5, 2027 is National AI Literacy Day.

As technology continues to evolve, preparing young people for the future means helping students understand AI, think critically about how it is used, and build the skills needed to navigate an AI-enabled world.

At WeCode KC, expanding access to technology education is at the heart of what we do. We look forward to joining the conversation around AI literacy and the future of learning.
