On Tuesday, there was a pep rally at the at ITHS highschool in the CCEC and there were many representatives there that talked about the importance of code. Even the Queens borough president was there! From the Queens borough president to the founder of code.org, coding is a real privilege that not that many people know how to do it around the world. Spreading the importance of coding and how it can help our growing technology is important and our school was the only school in Queens to have the opportunity to hear the wonderful speakers and professionals. There are so many open spaces for computer science jobs and there are not enough people to fill them, spreading the information about coding is really important. Not only, will it be very useful to know code, but the job is high paying too, which makes it more of a better job to have.
I really learned a lot at this pep rally about how important coding is in the real world and really hope that I will be able to major in computer science in college because of how much of an impact it has on society and how important it is to know code. Being able to understand code and write it is really a talent that when practiced, will be worth it to the end and it is my passion to pursue in code and understand it more. Thank you Mrs. Ramirez for this wonderful opportunity to be able to be a part of this pep rally, the founder of code.org for helping us learn code through your website, the Queens borough president for an amazing speech, Peipei and Katy from Facebook, Chau Deng from Accenture, Tom O'Connell from from Code Interactive, and all the other professionals that came to the pep rally!!
