More Than Code
This past weekend, we wrapped up our first 𝐌𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐧 𝐂𝐨𝐝𝐞 program in the House of Technology! Huge thanks to @ourjourni for partnering with us and @scommpartners for sponsoring our students and hanging out with us for the last several weeks. 🙌
𝐌𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐧 𝐂𝐨𝐝𝐞, led by Journi, is a program that helps to enhance high school students’ confidence in shaping their own future. Journi uses an approach of coding education to teach his students; which includes entrepreneurial training as well!
