Computer Science Club
Computer Science Club focuses on teaching programming and coding skills for contests and software development.
We provide resources and run meetings twice a week at lunch, where members learn from trainers, practice solving problems, write computer science contests, and build software projects including mobile apps, websites, and games. We also host up to two field trips for special contests outside our school. Through our activities, we hope to inspire students to pursue computer science as a career and improve code literacy. Notable alumni include Bruno Almeida, Weiwei Zhong, Calvin Liu, and Ahmed Sabie.
We meet Tuesdays and Thursdays at lunch in room 201 & 202
