My experience has with OWL has been fantastic. Working for a company that supported them in one of the schools, I got to know the program. Then I enrolled my child who is thriving in the program and loves. I would reccommend OWL.

Open world learning has been wonderful for both of my elementary aged boys. They are experiencing computer programs that they would never have had access to. The atmosphere is fun and supportive and we love the opportunity to be involved in the program.

My 10 year old son has been participating in Open World Learning (OWL) for the past semester at Park Hill School. While his school does provide some computer classes, they are very limited and do not at all address programming. He loves attending OWL and is learning Microworlds and Scratch computer languages, to program graphics and games that he has created. This is a fantastic program that will give today's kids a technical (and fun) computer programming education that will be sure to help them later in life.

Increase its funding so that it can be offered in more schools.
