The Partnership for Innovation in Education is presenting the Geek Squad Academy at Taft IT High School this June. It is open to Cincinnati Public Schools students ages 11-18.
The Geek Squad Academy provides an opportunity for students to develop tech skills, build self-confidence, spark creativity, and discover how technology can benefit them in their educational pursuits and in future careers. Students at Geek Squad Academy become "Junior Agents" and get hands-on experience with some of the newest and coolest technology.
Local Best Buy employees help the Junior Agents explore areas like:
- Coding
- Film Production
- Photography
- 3D Design
- Digital Music
- And more
It is one thing to tell teens about a possible future in technology. Best Buy believes that when you show them that not only is it a possibility, but that they can start right now, that is when our Junior Agents get inspired and that is when the magic happens.
Dates: June 15-16, 2022 (9 a.m.–3:30 p.m.)
Location: Taft IT High School, 420 Ezzard Charles Drive, Cincinnati, OH 45214
Ages: 11-18
