Last week, we hosted our first ever virtual summer camp! Our students learned how to write fundamental SQL queries and create storyboards using Tableau. Here are some of the friendly faces that were part of our Data Visualization Summer Camp with EnVision!

Also, a huge thank you to all of EnVision's members and ITS Academy volunteers who helped make this week-long event a success. 🤩

We look forward to seeing some familiar faces at our upcoming events!

After much deliberation, we have made the difficult decision to cancel the G.I.R.L.S. Symposium & ITS Exploration Camp this year. While this is unfortunate, the health and safety of our community is our number one priority.

Our goal is to deliver a memorable experience while maintaining a high-quality program. If you have registered and paid for the event you will receive a full refund.

If you haven’t done so already, please join our mailing list to get our newsletters and connect with us on Facebook and Instagram. That is a great way to stay informed of any upcoming events and information about summer events.

For our 2nd newsletter release, we provide recap on our HackIT event that took place last month. On the second page, we present our winners of the event. For middle school it was the Flaming Turtles, and for high school it was Runtime Error. We would also like to give a shout out to all the other teams who participated. Without you all this event wouldn’t have been possible, so thank you and continue staying curious on what interests you!

Thank you to our sponsors CapitalOne for providing amazing mentorship to all the attendees, and a thank you to our volunteers who took time out of their day to work alongside CapitalOne.

We look forward to having you out again at our next event, Girls S.T.E.M Symposium on March 27-28. Look out for more information soon.
