Morse High School

Eight of our Morse Tigers presented at the UCSD Create CS Listen Up Conference at the Marina Village Conference Center in in front of an audience of 200 people! This team of student researchers has been working for over 3 months to develop a research question centered around student involvement in Computer Science on campus, conduct their research through focus groups, analyze their data, and prepare a presentation of their findings.

If you have these students, please congratulate them!

They worked hard and represented Morse well!
