// CURRICULUM · GRADES 9–12

Coding is the foundation. Not the enemy.

Agent Academy is an 18-week course that teaches real computer science by having students build and command AI agents — the modern job — on top of genuine Python fundamentals.

// THE MODEL

Think, build, then command.

01

Think

Computational thinking — decomposition, logic, and problem framing that hold up whether a human or an AI writes the code.

02

Build

Python fundamentals in a real editor: variables, data, control flow, functions. Students write and run actual code from week one.

03

Command

Directing AI: prompting, orchestration, verifying output, and the ethics of building systems that take actions.

// THE SYLLABUS · 18 WEEKS

Eight operations. One capstone.

Operation 01 is live and free. The rest are designed and rolling out through the pilot.

01Weeks 1–2

Binary Shores Academy

Python foundations & how AI agents actually work.

02Weeks 3–4

Variable Village

Data, JSON, and giving an agent something to reason over.

03Weeks 5–7

Logic Lake Outpost

Decision systems — and the ethics of automated choices.

04Weeks 8–10

Loop Canyon Base

Batch processing and optimization at scale.

05Weeks 11–13

Function Forest

Building AI tools with real safety constraints.

06Weeks 14–15

Array Mountains

Knowledge systems and retrieval (RAG).

07Weeks 16–17

Object Oasis

Orchestrating multiple agents together.

08Week 18

Database Depths

Capstone build + real-world impact assessment.

// STANDARDS

Mapped to CSTA, honestly.

Agent Academy aligns to real CSTA computer-science standards for grades 9–12. Adoption differs by state, so we show you exactly how it maps to yours.
