Recognize a CS HERO from your school!

CSTA - Vermont invites you to recognize CS Heroes from around our state.
Each day this week we will spotlight CS Heroes from around Vermont. Let’s

our Vermont students


Let’s celebrate our fellow educators who increase access to computer
science in Vermont

Vermont librarians as CS Heroes


Today, during Computer Science Education Week, Vermont-CSTA recognizes a
group of educators whose impact often goes unnoticed but is felt across
every hallway and  classroom in our schools: our Vermont school librarians.
These educators are true CS Heroes, expanding access to computer science
through creativity, collaboration, and a deep commitment to student
learning.

Across the state, librarians are leading Hour of Code events, teaching
robotics, guiding students to think critically about artificial
intelligence, and curating resources that help both teachers and students
explore new CS ideas. Warren School, Moretown School, Fayston, Waitsfield
School, Johnson  Hyde Park, and Cambridge School have written grants, built
partnerships, and  co-designed residencies with Create Make Learn that
bring hands-on computer science experiences directly into their schools.

This week, Vermont librarians are inspiring students in countless ways —
from coding Finch Robots at White River Valley Middle School, to cross-age
Sphero  projects at Newport City Elementary , to robotics integrated with
mapping, science, and literacy at CP Smith Elementary . At Johnson
Elementary, Hiawatha Elementary School, and Integrated Arts Academy  librarians
are helping students explore how technology shapes their world and imagine
tools for the future, while others are collaborating on Beebot and Ozobot
robotics units or helping students develop AI literacy through hands-on
analysis of images and media.

Librarians at Essex Westford, Mountain View SU, Newbury, Burlington and
South Burlington Schools are integrating coding and STEAM activities in
their libraries.

Vermont’s librarians are opening doors to computer science by sparking
curiosity, nurturing problem-solvers, and ensuring all students see
themselves as capable creators in a digital world. Today, we celebrate and
thank them for all they do to make CS accessible, engaging, and empowering
in our schools.
