Hillendale Elementary
Spark Learning is proud to partner with Hillendale Elementary and UCFSD to bring hands-on STEM education directly to students in our school community.
Hillendale Elementary Clubs and Camps
Through our partnership with Hillendale Elementary, students have access to Spark Learning's full suite of STEM programs — from coding, gaming, robotics, to engineering — right on campus. Leading the charge is Mr. Picard, whose passion for innovation drives everything he does in the classroom. Mr. Picard consistently pushes the boundaries of traditional STEM education, designing hands-on, project-based experiences that challenge students to think like real engineers, scientists, and coders. His commitment to delivering engaging and innovative lessons ensures that every student leaves each session not just with new skills, but with a genuine excitement for discovery.
