PROJECT UPDATE
We know planning is not always smooth and easy. Have you seen our Girls Build Webcomic where we follow along through the ups and downs of a team? Check out how this team manages set backs and scheduling conflicts. Check out pages 30-40. 

Looking for an example? 
  • So inspired by Lennox Academy's Athenaias and the Change Agents from Compton Early College High School and West Adams who came with signs to the Women's March. 
  • Clinton Middle School's team showing off their project and advertising their site on Instagram. 
  • Software Sisters from La Canada who took time for a retreat and practice and plan for their upcoming Information Meeting about their Innovation Camp they are planning.
