What is a problem in your community that you want to tackle? Hack for Good provides an opportunity for Bellevue School District middle school students to learn, collaborate with others, and sharpen their coding skills! You can compete individually or in a team of up to three to create an impactful tech solution. We will have workshops open to all BSD students in the weeks leading up to the hackathon, as well as live Google Meet Q & A sessions during the event. There are also prizes, and the first 50 people to register will receive a swag bag. Bring a positive attitude, and let's have some fun!!
