Teaching Life Skills Through Technology

Metro Atlanta's fastest-growing industries are demanding tech-literate talent earlier than ever. Together Friends Organization bridges that gap by giving students real tools, real projects, and active teacher-student engagement to create skills preparing kids for participation in the digital economy.

What parents say:

"I have two eighth graders in the program. Both love coming here. I've never seen them more engaged in school and with friends. Of course they like to hang around their friends, but I've never seen them more excited about science and math. TFO gets the kids not just involved, but excited about learning. I love being involved with them, so to chaperone and be involved with their education and their extracurricular activities means a lot to me. Seeing them excited about learning, going on these field trips, and seeing things they've never seen before (and I've never seen before) is great. I hope to continue that even when they're done."
