I met Christopher Alexander, the founder of the NW Saturday Academy, last November at the meeting of Advisory Neighborhood Commission 4D, when he spoke about the program. NW Saturday Academy is a math, computer science and robotics program for DC youth (primarily third, fourth and fifth graders). Their Saturday classes introduce elementary school students to Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) topics in a fun and challenging environment that encourages them to use their creativity and explore. Students come from different schools within Ward 4 and throughout the city.
