Report: Computer science unavailable to many minority kids

Millennials may be the first generation born and raised in the digital age, but the state of California has a long way to go in catching up to modern times in providing the state’s minority students with a proper education in computer science, according to a new report.

“Path Not Found: Disparities in Computer Science Course Access in California High Schools,” a reportfrom the Level Playing Field Institute, found that public schools with a high number of students of color are half as likely to offer computer science classes as schools with a predominately white or Asian student body.
