Our students are changing the future with an Hour of Code
We live in a world surrounded by technology, and we know that whatever field our students choose to go into as adults, their ability to succeed will increasingly depend on understanding how technology works. However, only a fraction of us are learning how technology works. Only 51% of all high schools offer computer science. ( At North High School, Computer Science is offerred to their students!)
During this Computer Science Education Week, December 5-11, we want to bring more awarenes to our students. More than 100 million students worldwide are trying an Hour of Code. Our Hour of Code is making a statement that Yukon Elementary School is ready to teach these foundational 21st-century skills by continuing to bring programming activities to your students. Please encourage your student to check out the website. See http://hourofcode.com/us/en for details, and help spread the word.
