Today, Monday, March 2, 2026, 24 educators from Peoria County schools came together for Day 02 of our continuous learning journey in the ROE 48 Computer Science Cohort!

This cohort is designed to foster a collaborative learning community where K–12 educators:
Share best practices
Engage in meaningful professional learning
Integrate computer science concepts across core content areas

Participants engaged in hands-on learning - building LEGO® Education sets, exploring student-centered classroom practices, and deepening their understanding of how to advance STEM instruction in authentic, engaging ways.

We love seeing educators learn, collaborate, and innovate together to create powerful opportunities for students across Peoria County!
