STLP empowers student learning and achievement through the use or creation of technology based solutions to school and community needs.
Students create projects, products or services to meet those needs and then demonstrate their process and learning via various STLP categories.
Categories range from instructional, technical or community service based projects to digital content creation (digital art, photography, design, programming, app development, robotics, etc.) to technical services (student help desk, network engineering, wireless deployments, etc.). The best projects, products and services from Regional competitions are invited to compete at the STLP State Championship each spring.
