The HHS Difference
Hacker Highschool wants teens to thrive in cyber. With so much of our lives online now the real advantage is knowing how to succeed in cyber and you can succeed in tomorrow’s world. We teach this by embracing “hacking” as a skill.
Whatever you may have heard about hackers, the truth is they do something really, really well: discover. Hackers are motivated, resourceful, and creative. They get deeply into how things work to the point that they know how to take control of them and change them into something else. This lets them re-think even big ideas because they can dig to the bottom of how things function.
Furthermore, they aren't afraid to make the same mistake twice just out of a kind of scientific curiosity, to see if that mistake always has the same results. That's why hackers don't see failure as a mistake or a waste of time because every failure means something and something new to be learned. And these are all traits any society needs to make progress.
At Hacker Highschool we teach teens: “Hack everything but harm none.”
