Over eleven sessions, they will stay late into the evening at TBA, learning the in’s and out’s of PC hardware, software, the internet, and office productivity applications. Let by TBA teachers and guided by their sons and daughters who range from the 9th-12th grades, families will take home new technology skills, new family computer systems, and a greater understanding of the ways in which technology can help them, both during their time at TechBoston Academy, on the path to college, and beyond.
