Learning CS isn't just about coding. It's also about collaboration, creativity, and finding solutions to global problems. Studies show: students who study CS perform better in other subjects, excel at problem-solving, and are more likely to attend college. https://t.co/8c6LpmWYHK

Young women and students of color are breaking records in computer science! The gender gap in high school CS continues to shrink, 6 years in a row, and there are so many people to thank! 🖥💪🎉 https://t.co/U4HyYyz35B

[Loudoun Codes @loudouncodes]

Did you know LoudounCodes has a slack where teachers, high school students, and alumni chat about various computer science topics? DM if you would like an invite. No grades, no homework, just the fun associated with sharing and learning.
