All 600 students in grades K-5 at Bay Haven School of Basics Plus will once again join the largest learning event in history, the “Hour of Code,” leading into the national observance of Computer Science Education Week, December 4-10. The school has invited Bay Haven parents, community members and business leaders to attend the Hour of Code kickoff assembly at 2:30pm on Wednesday, Nov. 29, to help students participate in the “Hour of Code” all week, Nov. 30 through Dec. 6, with help from technology teacher Sarah Hu. Participating classes will be held throughout the school day, from 9:30am to 3:45pm. Last year, Bay Haven students wrote over 30,000 lines of computer programming code with the help of parent volunteers, New College of Florida faculty and students, and local IT professionals. This year the school is partnering with the Microsoft Store at University Town Center and New College of Florida to provide a broad perspective on the computing industry.
