Join the CA-47 2023 Congressional App Challenge

Congressional App Challenge for Middle and High School Students

CA 47 Students - Are you interested in coding?

Congresswoman Katie Porter is excited to announce the Congressional App Challenge for Congressional District 47, a competition designed to encourage student participation in computer science and coding.

This nationwide effort allows students to compete against their peers by creating an app for mobile, tablet, or computer devices. The Challenge is designed to promote innovation and engagement in coding and computer science.

Middle and high school students will compete against their peers in the district by creating and exhibiting their apps for any platform of their choice.

Apps may also be written in any programming language.

Submissions will be judged on the following criteria: quality of the idea, including creativity and originality; implementation of the idea, including user experience and design; and demonstrated excellence of coding and programming skills.

The winner from CA-47, chosen by a panel of expert judges, will be featured on CongressionalAppChallenge.us. The winning app will also be on display in the U.S. Capitol.

For more information, please visit the official Congressional App Challenge website at CongressionalAppChallenge.us.

For any questions, please email Anthony.Falcone@mailhouse.gov or call (949) 668-66o0.

Submissions are due November 1.
