WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Congressman Mike Flood has encouraged Nebraskans to participate in the annual Congressional App Challenge (CAC). The CAC challenges middle and high school students to learn how to code and inspire them to pursue careers in computer science.

“Nebraska is called the Silicon Prairie because of our innovation and creativity. The Congressional App Challenge is a great way for the next generation of students to jump into this arena and enhance Nebraska’s reputation as a hub for tech,” said Rep. Flood. “The CAC is the nation’s premiere award for students in computer science. I strongly encourage any middle or high school student who might have an interest to check this competition out. I look forward to seeing what students in the First Congressional District can create through coding!”

Students can work on a project as individuals or in groups of up to four people.

The deadline to register and submit your app for this year’s competition is October 24, 2024. More information can be found by clicking here.
