Wintriss Technical Schools...a San Diego, non-profit, public benefit, 501(c)(3) institution
Wintriss Technical Schools (WTS) is unique in its
mission
of
teaching computer programming skills to grade and
middle school children
,
preparing them to fill critical shortages of computer programmers
expected within the next ten years. To maintain the U.S. position of
scientific leadership, the children of today will need to know how to
write, as well as use, the complex software of tomorrow. WTS trains
its students in writing computer programs using the popular JAVA
language and object-oriented programming techniques in a fun-filled
environment. Our
goal
is to
introduce kids to advanced computer programming
concepts at an early age
that will prepare them to successfully compete for college and for
well-paying jobs.
WTS is the first organization of its type to teach Java to children
in grade schools and middle schools. Our
objective
is to prove this concept and
expand the teaching of Object Oriented programming
broadly. The private school utilizes volunteer Java professionals as
teachers and relies on individual donations for its programs. No
student is turned away because of financial hardship.
Since founding in 2006, over seventy San Diego children have
attended
WTS or are continuing students. Both parents and children
have
overwhelmingly expressed excitement about the program and
students
look forward eagerly to the fun-filled classes
writing
computer games, a much welcomed change from playing computer games.
Your
donations
will be used solely to fund school operations, programs and
scholarships.
