Student Coding in Beeville ISD

Texas School Business Magazine recently shared their Eleventh Annual issue of "Bragging Rights," featuring the incredible work that Beeville ISD has done, with the help of Globaloria, to offer computer science and coding lessons to all 3,300 students in the district.
