Welcome to Algebra I
Dunne STEM Academy • Class of 2030
We merge classical algebra with computer science so our scholars can build, lead, and launch bold ideas for Chicago. This classroom celebrates Black excellence, innovation, and the power of community-centered future-building.
Our Curriculum & Tech Fusion
We use the CME Algebra I curriculum as our foundation and supercharge every unit with coding, logic, and computational thinking. Students learn to solve equations and design digital solutions, building the mindset to become creators, entrepreneurs, and problem-solvers for their neighborhoods.
Coding Connections
Students translate math patterns into simple code to explore automation, logic, and real-world modeling.
Entrepreneurial Thinking
Math + coding becomes a toolset for creating solutions, building confidence, and imagining future businesses.
