Beyond Possible

From the second floor of The Possible Zone’s red-brick innovation center in Jackson Square, a squadron of robots clicked and whirred as they chased down green balls in a tangled field of obstacles and sped around a racetrack constructed with blue painter’s tape.

A new college pathway initiative being launched by Boston Public Schools will aim to connect its students with those opportunities. The program, called “Beyond Possible,” will offer students hands-on experience in computer science with college-level classes.
