This year I am an in-person reader for the AP Computer Science Principles exam! Thank you Mineola High School for giving me this opportunity! I’m looking forward to coming back with a much deeper understanding of the Create Task and exchanging ideas with CS teachers across the country.

Huge respect to Mrs.Berkowitz and Kuri DiFede for transforming Mineola's CS program. From a school with no real tech classes to one producing CTF competitors and self-taught game devs. x.com/trailofbits/st…

Cybersecurity LOVED using games to learn the concept of encryption in class today! This was my favorite thing learned from #EdCon25 from CYBER.ORG from Jenny Circello 's talk! We got to work in teams to decrypt and intercept other team's secret codes! #MineolaProud

For her Cybersecurity 2 project, Jade taught our RISE learners all about strong passwords! Learners had fun sorting examples as “Safe” and “Unsafe” and even the adults walked away with new tips! 😁 #MineolaProud Mineola High School
