The first Mouse Squad Digital Meet-Up was great! Watch it here, or click here to view on YouTube.

The next meet-up will be held November 20. Hope to see you then!

We are excited to announce Mouse Squad Digital Meet-Ups, a new interactive web series for Mouse Squad Coordinators from across the national network!

At each meet-up, you'll have the chance to hear a featured Mouse Squad Coordinator and their students talk about the work they're doing, how they run their Squad, and the best practices they've uncovered for tackling great projects at their site. For new Mouse Squad Coordinators, these meet-ups will be a great opportunity to hear from experienced Coordinators and begin to plan for your new Squad. For both new and experienced Coordinators, we hope that these meet-ups will be a forum for you to network with colleagues across the country, collect new project ideas, troubleshoot challenges in your Squad, and more.

The October Meet-Up will feature fantastic Mouse Squad Coordinator Christine Lee and the P.S. 89 Defenders of Technology from P.S. 89 Cypress Hills Community School in Brooklyn, NY. Get a preview of the Defenders by watching their 2013 DIY Project here.
