The NextPitch Demo Sandbox is a practice space for educators and group leaders to explore how pitch competitions work before running them with students. This environment lets you test every feature—posting sample ideas, giving tokens, reviewing judge tools, trying out educator controls, and experimenting with your own rubrics or prompts. Nothing here is real or graded; it’s simply a safe, playful space to click around, learn the flow, and get comfortable with the platform from every role’s perspective. Use this sandbox to imagine how NextPitch can support your classroom, after-school program, club, or community event as you prepare to guide learners through meaningful, creative, and engaging pitch experiences.

Juneteenth is the oldest known celebration commemorating the ending of slavery in the United States. Traditionally Juneteenth is known as a cultural event that celebrates the emancipation of slaves in America in 1865. Brought to Kansas City in 1980 by Horace M Peterson III, founder of the Black Archives of Mid-America INC, Juneteenth is an annual heritage celebration and platform that celebrates the emancipation of enslaved Africans in America and provides the backdrop to pay tribute to the founders of our community.

Enterprise and Design is a program where students get regular high school credits but are earning it through client connected projects. We match them with industry professionals (clients) and they work with teams to complete real world projects with actual problems that those clients need to have solved and they come up with solutions and pitch those ideas.
