This report highlights three inspiring success stories that demonstrate the transformative power of Computer Science (CS) education in schools. Baker Franke's advocacy led to funding for CS classes in Chicago Public Schools, ensuring every high school student has access to quality CS education. Tammy Pirmann successfully replaced an outdated tech course with a CS requirement in her district, enabling all students to learn crucial skills. Joel Adams collaborated with local representatives to support CS education initiatives. These stories illustrate the importance of CS as a fundamental part of education for all students.

  7. Chicago Public Schools9/6/2011 email – Don Yanek (Chicago CSTA) • Three years ago I asked three local university CS professors*  to work with me on getting National Science Foundation funding to reshape computer science education in the Chicago Public Schools.  My vision was [and is] that every high school student has access to at least one true CS class. • Our group decided to seek a National Science Foundation research grant.  I am happy to say that after two very thoughtful rejections, our third proposal [Collaborative Research: Type I: Taste of Computing: Adding a CS Entree to the Education Choices in a Large Urban School District ] has been accepted for funding!!   All three years of our research proposal have been fully approved and funded at $756,000!!!  As a high school teacher and CSTA member, I am very proud to be listed as a CO-PI on this grant.**

  8. Chicago Public Schools9/6/2011 email – Don Yanek (Chicago CSTA) • The plan includes training all Chicago Public CS teachers in the new Exploring Computer Science curriculum. • The NSF grant will also enable teachers to earn college credit for the training they receive. This grant will help make it possible for us to transform Computer Science education and instruction for the nearly 450,000 Chicago Public School students.

  9. Three success storiesACM Inroads Magazine Vol. 3 No 2 • Tammy Pirmann: Believed that CS should be a fundamental part of education for all students…… • High school CS teacher in Springfield School District, PA. • District requirement: outdated computer technology course but no CS course requirement • Worked with principal and then district coordinator and then school board to replace the tech course with CS.

  10.

  11. Tammy's story • The citation concludes with: "On behalf of the constituents of the 7th Congressional District of Pennsylvania, I commend the Philadelphia Area Computer Science Educators for their dedication to inspiring young Americans to pursue a field of study of enormous importance to their nation and the world."  –Joe Sestak (Congressman)
