Why Join?
We believe that the best benefit of being a “TGR” is the inspiration, enthusiasm, knowledge, and advanced skills that students gain by engaging in the Tech Gets Real Club. Participating in extracurricular activities has always been important, however, today students need to gain the necessary skills to compete in the 21st Century, therefore it should be mandatory.
