Nineteen middle school girls had an awesome time at TCHS Saturday afternoon; learning how to program robots!

The workshop was a first collaboration between Downingtown Area Robotics and [http:techgirlz.org Techgirlz]. DAR students Laura and Akhila stepped up to organize this event; preparing the lesson plans, securing the necessary materials, coordinating with Techgirlz, and recruiting and training additional instructors (Katie and Sai).

The workshop was a wonderful success and we look forward to following up with more.

Downingtown Area Robotics is a nonprofit organization operating out of the TCHS offering coeducational FIRST Robotics programs to area middle and high school students. Techgirlz is a nonprofit organization dedicated to reducing the gender gap in technology occupations by focusing on girls at the crucial middle school age.
