From July 10-27, the students dove into coding at Nerd Street's Localhost gaming venue in Center City. The Introduction to Python workshop was made possible by a grant from AmeriHealth Caritas and was offered at no cost to city-based high school juniors and seniors interested in computer science or technology careers.
