First time coders win App Inventor of the Month Award

Today .. I received some exciting news. Two of my students at the App Inventor Workshop at Silicon Valley Boys and Girls Club at Smythe Location won the Young Inventor Award in the MIT App Inventor of the Month challenge for December. Desteny and Ashley created an app called "Safe House" after picking up App Development skills for the first time through the workshop. They walked into my class with no experience in coding, but showed a desire to learn. Congratulations to them for their hardwork and dedication. This is a huge milestone.
