2. Hackers, Coders and Gamers: HSFI Gaming Club will be inviting you to attend.
4th and Final Theme AND a Game Jam!We would like to FINALLY introduce our fourth and final theme: Envision Gender Equity, Diversity & InclusionNYC is one of the most diverse cities in the world and a place where people of different ethnicities, genders, nationalities and backgrounds live. However, there remains a significant lack of diversity, gender equity and inclusion in the NYC workforce. Not only does this inequity raise moral and social justice concerns, but it poses competitive disadvantages to companies and employees because workforce diversity is directly linked to increased productivity, innovation, creativity, employee retention and many other benefits.
Come find out more about this theme at our next game jam, which takes place on 1/26/2019 at the New York Public Library! Please find more information and sign up here! Please bring as many students, friends and family as you wish!
3. Reading Revolution@ HSFI library:
The HSFI library has multiple copies of The Hate You Give by Angie Thomas.
4. We are ordering copies of Michelle Obama's book:

We have two of the top 10 GN @ HSFI
Spill Zone by Scott Westerfeld. illus. by Alex Puvilland. First Second. Gr 10 Up.
Addison lives in what used to be Poughkeepsie, NY—until a mysterious event killed her parents, left her sister unable to speak, and turned the city into a surrealistic landscape where ordinary objects arrange themselves in curious patterns, a strange substance makes things flatten into the ground, and zombies float in midair. The Spill Zone is strictly off limits, but Addison ventures in at night to take photographs to sell to collectors. Things get even weirder, though, when she wanders out of her comfort zone to fulfill a strange request. This is the first part of a two-volume series.
The Wendy Project by Melissa Jane Osborne. illus. by Veronica Fish. Papercutz. Gr 7 Up.
After Wendy’s brother is killed in a car accident in which she was driving, the teen cannot come to terms with his death and insists that he is alive. Urged by a therapist to write and draw in a journal to cope with her sorrow, Wendy draws images of a flying man and Neverland. The story will leave readers wondering if Wendy is still wallowing in grief or if her brother really is alive. Osborne and Fish weave in quotes and other elements from J.M. Barrie’s Peter Pan. Black-and-white drawings with splashes of color effortlessly stir up a feeling of loss.
