| SCHOOL OF COMPUTER SCIENCE

CS4HS is a new effort by the School of Computer Science at Carnegie Mellon University to reach out to high school (and K-8) teachers to provide resources to help them teach computer science principles to their students in a fun and relevant way. Our goals include helping teachers explain to students the exciting possibilities available to students who go on to study computer science in college.
