Raspberry Pi in an Urban MIddle School

I want to take my STEM club to the next level by moving from Scratch computer programming to Raspberry Pi mother board programming. This would be an authentic hands-on STEM experience for my talented and diverse group of 8th graders that are ready for a new challenge. There is no finding for this innovative program at SPS but you can help! I believe that this opportunity might turn some of my kids into future scientists and engineers.
