With a dynamic personality, Alexandra Wang (‘27) brings her adventurous spirit to every aspect of her life. From replaying horror escape rooms with friends in Shanghai this summer to enjoying the twists and turns of action-packed films, Alex’s love for thrill is evident. When she’s not diving into her academic interests, Alex loves spending time with friends, especially in South Hutch,-–where she often hangs out in the upper lounge. Alex also has her passion for volleyball as she continues to shine as the team’s setter on varsity and club teams. In school, her enthusiasm for chemistry shines in her favorite class, IPC, directing her toward biology. This year, as a staff writer for Webb Canyon Chronicle, Alex is excited to write about social issues such as climate change and animal protection and bring awareness to more people.

Sophomores and juniors in Technology and Innovation Seminar 1.0 work on designs for their projects. Since the removal of AP Computer Science from course selections, students found themselves signing up for its replacement. “I signed up for this course because there was no APCS course, and it seemed fun to build projects and learn about software or hardware engineering,” Julie Liu (‘27) said. Although APCS has been removed from the program, its substitution, Technology and Innovation Seminar 1.0, is just as fun, with students developing their own projects and using critical thinking skills to solve problems.

What happened to the AP Computer Science course offered to sophomores?
