What is CSforALL?

Computer Science for ALL (CSforALL) is a bold initiative to make high-quality computer science an integral part of the educational experience of all school learners and teachers and to support student pathways to college and career success.

CSforALL embodies a vision in which educational systems provide equitable and accessible computer science education so that all students will be informed citizens who critically engage in a modern, technology-driven world; develop as learners, users, and creators of computational knowledge and artifacts; better understand the role of computing in the world around them; and learn, perform, and express themselves with computing across other subjects and interests.
