We celebrated seven new AppCamp graduates this week — joining our growing program alumni of 37 students from across #Niagara! 👏 Thank you to our @dsbn student leaders, Danny & Pran, for sharing their skills & knowledge to #educate & inspire fellow #students! #appdev #programming

In 2017, two @dsbn students approached us about creating a youth-led camp aimed at advancing digital literacy & #compsci skills among their peers. That’s how AppCamp, which promotes #coding concepts, languages, interactions & #appdev, was born! https://t.co/ttK9TaNmv5 #iOS
