silicon valley is known to have this dna where it produces steve jobs, sergei brin, all these people who innovate, and innovation transfers in a unique way. it is hard work, and hard work is the essence of that. we want to make sure we continue to produce more leaders like steve jobs, like larry page, like sergei brin, and like esmeralda, who has gone through the last three summers. we are obsessed with preparing careers. there are 32 school districts. this is a chance for a lot of agencies to come together and address that. i hope it can be shared in an open source environment. this is a science and technology focus, but it does address a lot of things and brings them together. over 18 school districts have come together. over 50 nonprofits to address one thing. how do we get 1000 kids over one year ahead in math competency to take algebra by the eighth grade? they go to the tech museum, the computer history museum, but they also learn actual on algebra, and we see great growth thanks to support from the foundation as well. we have a program that prepares students for biology in the
