Welcome to AP Computer Science Principles. This class will introduce students to the foundational concepts in the field and challenges them to explore how computing and technology can impact the world. We will be using code.org, a curriculum that is recognized by the College Board as an endorsed provider of curriculum and professional development for AP Computer Science Principles (AP CSP).
