Data Dashboard

Find out about computer science access in your community by using the CS Equity Dashboard. Click on your county or enter your district or school. Please note the data for this tool is drawn from the most recent publicly available dataset from the California Department of Education in 2019. While the data are not current, we hope the information can serve as a discussion starter with your local school, district, and county leaders and efforts can be made to secure more locally collected and accurate data at the site level.

Landscape Report

This report, Path Not Found: Disparities in Access to Computer Science Courses in California High Schools, is released in the wake of national protests against discriminatory police actions that devalue the lives of young people of color. For the first time in more than a generation, mass mobilizations have brought the daily struggles of these young men and women to the halls of the Department of Justice and to the center of our national conversation.
