<aside> 💡 In this playbook, you will learn how to implement our after-school program into Nairobi with ease and clarity.

</aside>

There are 3 areas about the implementation strategy that will be discussed in this playbook:

1. How do we filter schools, and how do we reach out to them?
2. What are different scenarios that could unfold from the initiative and what are our action plans for each?
3. What will the mentorship program look like?

Filtering Schools and Outreach

We are targeting secondary all-girls boarding schools in Nairobi, starting with private and then expanding the program to public. The schools should have the majority of the following (the more the better): interest, internet, electricity, space, a teacher to be able to help instruct students on how to use devices, and a teacher to supervise. They should also have an openness to mentors and workshops. We will reach out to whatever contacts we can get from online resources via email, phone numbers, or letters, preferably to the principal or directors of extracurriculars. To get in touch, we'll be contacting the educational and financial departments of the government, county representatives, standardized testing administrations and universities. If such contacts become difficult to get a hold of, we could potentially send representatives to go in person.

Here is a list of questions that we will ask during outreach:

• Are you interested in this program?
• How many students do you have?
• Are your students interested in this program; would there be a decent turnout?
• How many devices do you have?
• Do you have stable internet, and at what speed?
• Do you have electricity?
• Do you have space, eg a computer lab, library, science lab, or classroom, that can be consistently used for the after-school program?
• Do you have teachers who already have digital skills to a certain degree?
• How many teachers are willing to supervise?
• What does your school security look like?
• Would mentors be allowed in the school?
• Do you need money for utilities?

Predicting Different Outcomes and Results

We have ensured that if anything goes wrong, we will have anticipated it and will act accordingly. The following scenarios have been thought out in detail:

• What if there is little interest from schools?
• What if there is a low (<75) amount of students?
• What if some schools have no internet?
• What if some schools have no electricity?
• What if there are no teachers who know the basics of technology to be able to instruct students how to access the online curriculums?
• What if there are no teachers who want to supervise?
