This is exactly the type of investments the school and town should be making. It focusses on big challenges for American society (advancement of math and sciences) and incorporates many other subjects on the platform (humanities), so it is not a one dimensional resource (my guess is it is pretty limitless actually). This can be a huge community asset (i.e. not just for kids at the schools). Kudos and thanks to the team working on this!
