Girl Scouts

To expand Tech Together's reach, we partnered with select Girl Scouts chapters in our area teaching them the computing elements to earn their Coding for Good badges.

On International Women's Day, we piloted a beginner's Python programming session with a 5th-grade Girl Scouts Troop, teaching algorithm design fundamentals while programming fun games in a 4-hour coding session to 15 students where they earned their Coding Basics Badge. The session culminated with an inspiring speech about NASA's Dorothy Vaughn, a computer scientist pioneer. Additionally, we met with the Girl Scouts to teach them the fundamentals of Game Design and App Development to earn two more badges.
