The “Hour of Code” is a global movement to teach kids the importance of developing computer skills. It’s reaching tens of millions of students in more than 180 countries, with some of the program’s most recent participants being the students at Kyrene Traditional Academy in Chandler.
Governing Board members have agreed to provide some financial relief to budget-squeezed Kyrene schools with the restoration of $300,000, which should be available in January.
While the city is widely known for the health of its economy, Chandler, like a number of its neighbors, offers housing alternatives for individuals and families, who may need to secure affordable lodging in today’s challenging economy.
