Miller Place Students Learn to Code

Elementary School Students Are Introduced to Computer Science and Learn Vital Concepts of 21st Century Programming

The Miller Place School District’s Andrew Muller Primary School recently organized an opportunity for students to learn about developing technology and how to code. Eileen Laffey, the District’s technology integration specialist and staff developer, worked with students from Kindergarten through second grade to introduce them to the inner workings of technological programing.

The activity was part of the District’s involvement in the global initiative, Hour of Code, which is intended to inspire students to develop an interest in computer science at a young age.

For more information regarding activities happening throughout the Miller Place School District, please visit the District’s website: www.millerplace.k12.ny.us or www.millerplaceinthemedia.com.
