SHS PREP Girls Who Code (6th - 8th) 9/11-11/20

  • September 11, 2025
  • 5:00 PM - 6:00 PM
  • Adlai E. Stevenson High School 3012 Computer Lab

Each Club revolves around a Girls Who Code Project, which is a group project that girls plan and code together. Through this project, girls also learn how to support and encourage one another and explore the potential of computer science as a tool to impact the world. Because Clubs focus on a project that girls design, the curriculum can work for students with a wide range of computer science experience.

By the end of the Club year, all girls will:

- Participate in a safe and supportive environment of peers & role models and learn to see themselves as computer scientists.

- Be exposed to foundational computer science concepts (loops, variables, conditionals, and functions) that form the basis for all programming languages -- whether they want to create art, code an app, or build a robot.

- Work on a team to design and build a Girls Who Code Project that focuses on an issue that matters to the girls in the Club.

Thursdays from 9/11 through 11/13. Register here.
