Several area schools are among a little more than 1,100 nationwide being recognized for helping to promote interest in computer science among female students.
Greater Latrobe, Deer Lakes and East Allegheny high schools and Pittsburgh Science and Technology Academy are among 22 public schools in Pennsylvania that have received the 2020 College Board AP Computer Science Female Diversity Award.
The schools qualified for the recognition by having female students represent 50% or more of those enrolled in one of two Advanced Placement courses AP Computer Science Principles or AP Computer Science A. Schools also could receive the award based on female students who took a related AP exam that offers the opportunity for college credit.

Sponsored by CHS Future Business Leaders of America, and in conjunction with Winterfest, students, teachers, and staff took time Feb. 3 to watch the premier of the 2021 Virtual Talent Show on YouTube. Want to have some fun? Want to see it even if not a student at CHS? Go to youtu.be/rfQGs0zpVJE. According to FBLA adviser Angila Golik, “We usually have a panel of teachers and community members as the judges, but this year, due to COVID-19, we opened up voting to all students, faculty, and staff as well.”
Voting took place by electronic ballot, so the results could be seen instantaneously by everyone involved. The $400 in cash prizes for the winners were sponsored by the Adams Hub from Carson City, and FBLA senior members Abby Golik and Serena Dantzler were the emcees of the video show.
