"The multi-billion-dollar gaming industry offers career opportunities in software design, advertising, accounting, graphic design and so much more," said Alan Sitomer, a California Teacher of the Year Award winner and CEO of Mastery Coding. "That's why we've built an academic esports toolkit that channels students' passion for gaming into deep, meaningful, standards-based education. It's a win for the schools, a win for the teachers, and most significantly, a win for the kids."
Cathy Perry, California League of Schools Executive Director, said, "This school year, CLS is focused on helping schools engage students because connection and well-being are very important during COVID-19. Esports is a great way to do this by helping students to learn and grow together. We are excited to partner with Mastery Coding to bring this unique curriculum to California schools!"
