The Hour of Code is Coming!

Over the last three years the Hour of Code has reached more than 100 million students in over 180 countries. Last year, you helped make this the largest learning event in history, with record participation from girls and underrepresented minorities.

This year, help us reach every student with the opportunity to learn.

Sign up your classroom today and get ready to do an Hour of Code with your class!

Teachers who join the movement early will also get a free kit with inspirational posters featuring young tech entrepreneurs for their classrooms!

Help us reach even more people by forwarding this email to another teacher. Or forward it to a principal to get your whole school on board!

Computers are changing every industry on the planet, and coding has become relevant to a wide range of high-paying jobs—even those outside the technology and engineering fields. For millions of students, the Hour of Code will be an inspiring introduction to this crucial 21st century skill.
