It is CS Education Week, which happens at this time every year to celebrate and energize the growing K12 CS Education movement.
The highlight of CS Education Week is the Hour Of Code, in which students, teachers, parents, and community members all do an hour of code during the school week.
I would like to encourage everyone in the technology business to find a school this week, maybe it is your child’s school, maybe it is the school building in your neighborhood, or maybe it is a school where a friend teaches, and volunteer to lead an Hour Of Code.
It is really quite easy to do this.

I’m on my way now to a school in the Bronx.
