Making the Socially Awkward, Socially Active Every Day.
Level Up With 1Up EDU
At VGCUSA, our passion for education was sparked by the profound impact a teacher had on us during our formative years.
The 1Up EDU Framework empowers teachers and librarians to foster connections among students through inclusive gaming clubs. By becoming a mentor and introducing our SEL Hacked games, you can help even the quietest student in the corner forge new friendships.
