EVENTS

Cyberstart Nationals

Thirty-two computer science students will be representing the Blue Streaks in the Cyberstart America National Championship next week, April 5-7.

The students were among 131 participants from Warren Hills who took part in the state competition. Warren Hills represented the second largest group of participants in the state as well as the second largest group of national qualifiers.

To be eligible to go on to the nationals, students had to complete a set percentage of assigned cybersecurity and digital skills tasks. Among the qualifiers were James Goode and Emma Sloan, who both earned silver badges. In 2020, Sloan made it to the GirlsGo Cyberstart National Championship, as well.

Students taking part in the national competition will be eligible to win scholarships.
