2024 Quantum Workshop and Camp Highlights
2024 Quantum for All Workshop and Camp
The Quantum for All Workshops for teachers , hosted by Martin High School, was held at Young Junior High in Arlington, TX. The Arlington site is completed, but there are also local/district camps held at various sites across the USA. For locations go to the website (STEM Camps).
We would like to acknowledge and THANK the following who have supported our efforts for this summer either in discounts, teacher support, or providing resources: Chick-Fil-A, STAQ, Quantum Levitation, Horizon Distributors, and STEM Experts.
There have been several news articles published on prior events. A few links are below, others are on the Newsworthy tab

This page will identify any upcoming PD quantum workshops or sessions that are relevant to quantum, but we also encourage you to follow us on social media, join our email list, and browse any prior sessions that have been offered (see Resources).
As we continue to develop and disseminate materials relevant to K-12 students, we will be offering those resources in our Store. We encourage you to check back regularly, as we develop these resources, as well as suggest topics you feel would be of interest to the K-12 educational community.
Opportunities
There are multiple presentations at CAST 2023 to get a glimpse of ways to incorporate quantum in your classroom. Check out the TSAAPT strand for more specifics. Join us!
