"Growing Computer Science"
“Growing Computer Science” is a new STEM learning program in Delaware County, PA presented by Lockheed Martin Corp. and Delaware County 4-H. Kids from 13-18 will build understanding of simple approaches to logical design and practical programming. The program will also prepare older members as “Teen Tech Leaders” who will learn to teach to younger kids. This experience looks great on a college application!

Meetings will occur monthly at the Delaware County 4-H Farm and Educational Center, Bishop Hollow Road, Newtown Square, PA. Anyone interested in more information can contact the Delaware County 4-H at (610)-690-2655 or  DelawareExt@psu.edu . Search Facebook for “Growing Science at Delaware County 4H” for more info.
