Our New Britain students – Girls Who Code – are our future LEADERS!

March 12, 2020

 

I recently joined Rep. Petit in welcoming students from Diloreto Magnet School to the State Capitol complex.

 

The students, who were accompanied by their teacher Peg Murray, are members of Girls Who Code, an afterschool program designed to introduce young people to the field of computer science.

 

They testified before the state legislature’s Commerce Committee in Support of Bill #280: An Act Concerning the Collection and Reporting of Student Data Relating to Participation in Computer Science Education.

 

They did a terrific job, and we are VERY proud of them!
