2022 Congressional App Challenge
Washington,
August 8, 2022
In 2013, leaders in the U.S. House of Representatives and at the Internet Education Foundation sought to foster an appreciation for computer science and STEM. That year House leadership overwhelmingly passed H.Res. 77, Academic Competition Resolution of 2013, which outlined the plans for Representatives to host yearly district-by-district computer science (or “app”) competitions for middle school and high school students. Representative Don Beyer proudly hosts the 2022 Congressional App Challenge to showcase the talented STEM students in Virginia’s 8th Congressional District.
