At Rex, we have matched Connecticut’s vision with our own.
Learning to code is comparable to learning reading, writing, and math for this generation. Rex makes this process easy and enjoyable for all!
Computer Science is key to developing and integrating 21st Century Skills (e.g., technology, communication, collaboration, critical thinking, problem-solving, innovation, creativity, and persistence). Every student deserves a high-quality, comprehensive computer science education that is rich in content and builds interdisciplinary literacy, problem-solving, critical thinking, and effective communication skills. The Department of Education expects districts to align computer science instruction to the state-approved standards so that computer science is eligible as part of the STEM credit pathway required for graduation.

At Rex, we have matched Connecticut’s vision with our own.
In 2019, Connecticut added computer science to the list of subjects that public schools must offer as part of STEM. Computer science is now part of the STEM credit pathway (9 credit minimum) that each student in Connecticut must satisfy for graduation requirements.
However, computers science is not yet mandatory for graduation in Connecticut.
Connecticut aligns quite well to CSTA and ISTE standards and therefore has seven core computer science concepts:
Works at home, in class, and on Chromebooks.
Aligns with state and national education standards.
Built for schools. Private, simple, and secure.
No CS degree necessary. Optional teacher included.
Detailed reporting tools and auto-grading.
Real coding and real projects with realtime feedback.
Rex Academy courses are also aligned to the following standards
