In my district there are a handful of CS classes at the high school level. Our school has a single section of AP CSP that we are hopefully expanding to 2-3 next year.

I hope to address how to engage all students (especially female students and URMs) in CS starting in 9th grade through either a clear vertical pathway or integration across disciplines.

In my district, schools have different career pathways. Two of my sites are tech pathways and our goal is to expose our students to more tech literacy as well as the vast world of tech and all of its endless possibilities. 

One of my sites actually has a CS course, but due to the pandemic, it has been put on hold. 

The other site needs a bit more support. 

I hope this project will help jumpstart a CS program at the site that has no prior experience. Both of my sites serve predominantly marginalized communities and with this project we can fight the inequities and I can support the CS team that already exists with expansion. ]]> 2021-03-02 00:07:04 UTC https://padlet.com/ucberkeleyleadership1/bef44qjlmyh97fjv/wish/1255953408 https://padlet.com/ucberkeleyleadership1/bef44qjlmyh97fjv/wish/1255953475 John Muir Charter School, YouthBuild teacher located in West Los Angeles.  Currently do not have a CS program at my site, but I am proud to say that some of my school administrators are in this course.
