Six WHS Computer Science Students Honored by NCWIT at MSOE

The NCWIT Aspirations in Computing Award honors 9th- 12th grade students for their computing-related achievements and interests and encourages them to pursue their passions. Award recipients are selected based on their aptitude and aspirations in technology and computing, as demonstrated by their computing experience, computing-related activities, leadership experience, persistence, and future plans. NCWIT-Wisconsin held their annual awards program at the Milwaukee School of Engineering on Sunday, May 4, and six Whitewater High School students were among the 144 Wisconsin honorees.
