Hello Barbara,


Did you have any questions from my last email about our Summer Programs for
9-12th graders or our Clubs curriculum and resources for 3-12th graders?
Can you share this flyer
<https://t.yesware.com/tt/0e6113810190ad39c83436c5e45d03d134f73e4f/630caf83d1da2d37ddc77803eb90731e/3cafd745ae26a1606cb2f3607b959b2a/girlswhocode.com/assets/downloads/craft-prod/downloads/GWC_Summer_Student.pdf>
with your network?

   patrons to apply to our virtual Summer Programs until the final deadline on

Hi Barbara,

I’m following up to see if you need anything else to help you share our
free summer opportunities. I don’t want your students to miss out on a
life-changing summer with Girls Who Code. As I mentioned, *it’s as easy as
posting the **Summer Programs flyer*
<https://t.yesware.com/tt/0e6113810190ad39c83436c5e45d03d134f73e4f/630caf83d1da2d37ddc77803eb90731e/4bf67f65de9f0b96b473fa236addc115/girlswhocode.createsend1.com/t/d-i-aklujtl-l-y/>*
or sharing the informational blurb *below with your community. We are still
accepting applications until our *general deadline on March 24th! *

As you head into any upcoming summer program planning meetings for the
library, I also recommend using our free Clubs program curriculum this
spring or summer. While our virtual high school summer programs are run by
Girls Who Code, our Clubs program would offer the library comprehensive
resources to run your own Clubs program for 3-12th graders. See our *Clubs
flyer*
<https://t.yesware.com/tt/0e6113810190ad39c83436c5e45d03d134f73e4f/630caf83d1da2d37ddc77803eb90731e/fa0da1d0e88743517aaed879f9e16969/girlswhocode.com/assets/downloads/craft-prod/downloads/GWC-Clubs-Flyer.pdf>
to see what thousands of other libraries across the country are also using,
and please let me know if you have any questions!


With kindness,
Kenya

with options running June 16 - August 11! They've got two great
opportunities, so you can choose the one that fits your needs:



   - Their 2-week *Summer Immersion Program (SIP)* hosts current *9th-11th
   graders *in live virtual classrooms led by industry-leading companies
   like Metlife, Bank of America, and Accenture. You’ll learn how to get
   creative with game design. By the end of the program, you’ll learn the
   fundamentals of game design, UX, the iterative design process, and more, as
   you build out a suite of short games using the p5.js library for
   JavaScript. You can even apply for laptop and hotspot access and grants of
   up to $300 for financial support!
   - Their Self-Paced Program gives current *9th-12th graders *the
   flexibility to learn to code through independent study and real-world
   projects. By the end of the program, you’ll earn beginner-level
   certificates of completion in HTML, CSS, or JavaScript for web development
   or intermediate-level certificates of completion in Python for
   Cybersecurity or Data Science.

Both programs introduce you to inspiring industry professionals and unlock
lifelong college and career support. For more information on our virtual
Summer Programs, check out *our website*

planning for summer programming at CT Association of School Librarians. Did

We provide the virtual teaching team, tech access and need-based grants for
students who qualify, and a supportive sisterhood where students can make
