"The Hour of Code started as a one-hour introduction to computer science, designed to demystify "code", to show that anybody can learn the basics, and to broaden participation in the field of computer science.

(Hour of Code website)" At Evans, we will be introducing the students to coding throughout the year through our makerspace area. Students will also have the chance in December to try their hand at some other computer based programs that teach students to code through challenges.
