"Girls Who Code"
 
Several in our CCS community are interested in starting a "Girls Who Code" club on our JH/SH campus. This national organization provides opportunities for students to "join a safe and supportive environment of peers and role models where girls learn to see themselves as computer scientists." In addition to learning how to code and hanging out with friends, the students work together to use computer science to solve real-life problems that they care about. We are looking for a parent or community member (a female, of course) to lead this club. 

The club is free, and the organization provides a myriad of resources. The goal is to open a summer camp next year and prepare our female students for an opportunity to intern through the Summer Immersion Program in the future. 

*If you are interested in helping, or know someone who might be perfect in this role, please contact Gina Smearsoll for more information. You don't have to be a computer scientist! You can learn right along with the "Girls Who Code."
