Academy Overview
At a time when computer science affects how we work and live, The HTHS Computer Science Academy empowers students to become creators, instead of merely consumers, of the technology all around them.
The Academy’s interdisciplinary courses engage students in compelling, real-world challenges. As students work together to design solutions, they learn computational thinking – not just how to code – and become better thinkers and communicators. Students take from the courses in-demand knowledge and skills they will use in high school and for the rest of their lives, on any career path they take.
