Last week our BID’s IDEA New Rochelle initiative linked up with CodeScty and the New Rochelle High School PTA to teach computational thinking and coding skills to a group of high school students using popular rap music as a learning tool. Many thanks to Monroe College for providing beautiful learning accommodations for the day, and to CodeScty for the engaging workshop.
