They're amazing!
They could charge 10X for these programs, and they'd still be worth every penny.

Agreed! MS Tech could be SO much better and this money could be better spent.

We looked in to it at my middle school a few years ago. I believe it was for the Invent the Future program. The cost at the time was too high for the population at my school.

There isn't anything comparable around here and it's really nothing short of amazing!
Ugh, the same Kid Museum booster (staff? Joftus family member?) on all these threads, with such lame attempts to claim it’s amazing …
..try not to use exclamation points so much. It’s making your posts even less believable.

Tell that to the 4 other companies that would have bid on this contract.
Which companies are those?

You have to pay for them. We tried to ask for a waiver for a virtual program and we’re told no.
