There is something to be said for exposing these high school students to some of the technology that runs their lives, and giving them the opportunity to learn something they would otherwise not have, regardless of whether they choose to pursue it as a career.

This will be my fifth year volunteering with ScriptEd! There's nothing quite like teaching others to solidify your own understanding, and nothing as rewarding as seeing the light go on when one of my students grasps a concept. I strongly encourage devs to volunteer!

I've been volunteering with ScriptEd for 4 years. Watching students' eyes light up as they start to understand how HTML, JS and CSS work is amazing. Also, the staff and volunteers are some of the smartest, coolest people you will ever meet. You should volunteer too!
