Since its founding in 2019, the TZHS CSHS has recruited new members, mentored students in computer science coursework and extracurricular programs and hosted tech-oriented alumni panels to promote college and career exploration. To be eligible for membership, students must have taken at least one semester-long computer science course, earn an 80% minimum grade point average in computer science coursework, complete 10 hours of community service (five hours must be related to computer science), demonstrate leadership and attend meetings regularly.
