History
On June 3, 2009, CSTA approved the formation of the San Diego Chapter in partnership with the San Diego Supercomputer Center (SDSC) Education K-12 program. Some of the first executive members that we know of were Joe Pistone, Pat Giovengo, Caro Willing, and Dr. Diane Baxter, Jeff Sale and Ange Mason of the San Diego Supercomputer Center Education Department. The Director of Education for SDSC at that time was Dr. Diane Baxter, who helped guide the board in its initial stages.
If you are a previous board member that is not listed here, please contact us so that we can create an accurate historical timeline.
In 2010, we formed a partnership with the San Diego Supercomputer Center Education Program to implement a National Science Foundation (NSF) grant to pilot AP Computer Science Principles course at any high school throughout San Diego County. In 2015, that partnership expanded to include UCSD’s CREATE program.
