Girls Who Code

This Fall, Hershey Public Library returns with the popular program, Girls Who Code. Girls in grades 6-12 learn how to use computer science to impact their community and join a sisterhood of supportive peers and role models. The program is designed for students with a wide range of computer science experience. Activities are available for girls with ZERO computer science experience all the way up to activities that introduce college-level concepts. The broad set of soft and hard skills taught are: Teamwork, confidence, time management, communication, functions, variables, conditional, and loops. Registration begins August 21. The first program is on Tuesday, September 19. 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. The program will run throughout the school year.
