I have tried multiple times to verify my educators account with GitHub to no avail. I have all the right materials submitted, I’ve tried school ID, pay stubs, etc. Then I found out that they are closing classroom and not accepting any new teachers into GitHub Classroom. This will be my first year teaching CSP, and I’m at a loss. Posted below is the GitHub post. I would like to use MakeCode’s game design curriculum, because I think it would be a fun way to introduce the material. What is the plan forward with the dissolution of the GitHub Classroom space?
