With great anticipation, Tek4Kids opened the St. Francis School of Technology (SFST) in September, 2015 with a premier class of 24 students. The school's curriculum focuses on preparing students for careers in Information Technology. In September, 2017, construc-tion began on a permanent space to house SFST and is nearing completion. We have now graduated two classes from SFST, many of whom are employed in the IT field!
Because Tek4Kids strives to help students succeed in a global economy, English is also part of the curriculum. In addition, SFST will offer post-graduate support to students in their employment search. Through this school, Tek4Kids plans to advance its mission and bridge the gap from school to the workplace by providing students with the necessary skills to obtain employment in the IT field.
Information Technology is a powerful, effective tool that contributes to the innovation of human life and makes the world smaller by bringing people together.
