Yes – The BBTTC is more fun with a friend! We will need them to fill out a registration form as well. The Best Buy Teen Tech Center is open to anyone grades 8-12 during drop-in hours

No – while some equipment may be used outside of the tech center and returned at the end of the drop-in hours, it is not available to be checked out and brought home. 

The BBTTC is a shared space where students from grades 6 to 12 hang out and learn. That means everything you view online, share, or show should be school-appropriate for all ages.

🚫 Students are not allowed to view or show anything that could be hurtful, inappropriate, or disturbing for anyone. This includes anything graphic or offensive, especially in places where minors might be nearby.

Of course! We have wifi, workspace and noise canceling headphones if needed.

Registration in advance is not required but it does help us make sure we have staff and volunteers when and where they are needed as well as plan transportation – if you don’t register online you’ll be asked to fill out the registration form when you arrive (including a parent’s signature).

Yes you can – any technology brought from home is expected to follow the BBTTC rules on internet content.

Yes! We have VR headsets with games and exploration apps, PC games and a PlayStation 5 with a selection of single-player and multi-player games.

Our students tell us that the snacks we provide are a big part of what they love about the Institute! We work hard to meet all dietary restrictions. When you register, please indicate any dietary restrictions you may have.

Yes we do! Here is more information about our transportation option:

Where does the bus pick me up?
Click here to see the shuttle stop information and schedules – you’ll find more information in the confirmation email when you register!

Does the bus take me home after class?
Yes! If you need to be dropped off somewhere else, our Program Manager will be in touch with you to help make plans.

Can I get picked up from home?
If you are not able to be picked up at school, our Program Manager will be in touch with you to help make plans.

What kind of vehicle is it?
Most of our rides are provided by our friends at NewTrax. They will arrive in a small white bus with orange or green trim. We will let you know if you should be looking for anything different.

We are eager to do what we can to make the Institute a place where you can safely learn and have fun. Contact our Curriculum Manager, James Rone, to discuss any accommodations you have so we can make the experience possible for you.

As often as you wish during our drop-in hours!
