Hour of Code 2019

A big thank you to Mr. Kent Bair, Product Manager
Dell Technologies, Education Services, for coming to SAA today as our "Hour of Code" guest speaker. The Hour of Code started as a one-hour introduction to computer science, designed to demystify "code", to show that anybody can learn the basics, and to broaden participation in the field of computer science. It has since become a worldwide effort to celebrate computer science, starting with 1-hour coding activities but expanding to all sorts of community efforts. SAA students were able to spend an hour coding today, as part of SAA's mission to empower our students to be successful!

Memory Verse for the Week of December 9th

"...the God whom we serve is able to save us. He will rescue us from your power, Your Majesty.  But even if he doesn’t, we want to make it clear to you, Your Majesty, that we will never serve your gods or worship the gold statue you have set up.” Daniel 3:17-18 NLT
