Access and Equity Lead to Excellence: Redlands Unified Schools

Redlands Unified is a culturally and socioeconomically diverse school district in California. Its strategic plan includes a pledge to ensure all students have the opportunity to explore innovative learning experiences such as robotics, coding, and programming. For district leaders, rethinking the way students learned computer science—starting as early as kindergarten—was a key part of the plan. They needed a program that provided a solid foundation in computer science and engineering design that students could build on year over year. The LEGO^® Learning System was a natural fit, allowing them to meet standards and provide equitable access to the curriculum and learning resources.
