Summary
Kelly Lougheed is a computer science educator in Los Angeles with a decade of experience designing and scaling K–12 CS programs that span Python, Java, Swift, web and mobile development, robotics, AI, and cybersecurity. At The Archer School for Girls she expanded upper-school offerings and grew CS enrollment by hundreds of percent through new courses—from introductory AI and game development to advanced iOS app and AP-level Java classes—and by integrating coding into math curricula. She pairs deep technical fluency (OOP, data structures, web stacks) with research-backed pedagogy like pair programming and flipped classrooms, and coaches competitive robotics teams. A former web developer and published author, she brings practical software development experience and a humanities background (magna cum laude in Classics) that informs creative, cross-disciplinary curricula. Currently completing an M.S. in Computer Science, she blends classroom impact with ongoing technical study and community-oriented initiatives like teen hackathons and Hour of Code events.
