My Project

Our Computer Science student leaders (Code Ambassadors) are enthusiastic about participating in service learning that positively impacts the entire school community. Code Ambassadors volunteer their free time to train on how to implement Computer Science activities, help plan school wide events, support classrooms by developing community resource guides and facilitate a culture of learning by hosting extracurricular events for students across all grade levels.

Having access to robotics kits will increase student engagement related to Computer Science education and enhance opportunities for our Code Ambassadors to learn new skills while positively impacting their school community implementation of activities.

The support that these Computer Science student leaders provide is instrumental in building a culture of collaboration, and empathy through community building activities. This project aims at building on student driven choice for 21st Century Learners that are future ready. Please consider supporting our students and fueling their passion for helping others through community service.
