Riverview Students Earn Tech Skills 'Belts'

Parents in Riverview and Mims are celebrating a program that teaches students technical and soft skills through a tiered system of learning, called 'Belts.' The program uses hands-on activities and modern technology like robotics, drones, artificial intelligence, and 3D printing to engage young learners.

Instructors teach concepts, followed by practical exercises that reinforce learning, from basic principles to advanced applications. This approach helps students understand and creatively apply new ideas.

The Belt Program keeps parents informed with regular progress reports, allowing them to track their child's development and offer support. This transparency strengthens the community's value of skill development.

Students celebrate their progress and acquired skills at a Belt graduation ceremony, marking the completion of their educational journey within the program.
