You may ask, “What is a Hackathon,” well “a hackathon is an event, usually hosted by a tech company or organization (our school), where programmers (or learners in our case) get together for a short period of time to collaborate on a project or solve a problem through programming. Hackathons are a lot of fun and are a great learning experience. If you wish for your child to attend, please return the consent form to me, Ms. Elfers in Room 301. If I am not in my room, your child may slip it under my door or you may place it in my Mailbox in the main office.
Any questions please email me at pelfers@schools.nyc.gov
