New York's Long Island

Leon LaSpina, Long Island Regional VP

Computer Science & Math Teacher, Bethpage High School

The Long Island Region of New York CSTA represents computer science and computing educators across Nassau and Suffolk counties, including communities such as Hempstead, Huntington, Islip, and Brookhaven, connecting K–12 schools, higher education institutions, and community partners. The region focuses on strengthening industry connections and expanding equitable access to high-quality computer science instruction.

In early November we organize a day of K12 teacher professional development for educators interested in adding some computer science learning opportunities for students or for teachers to dive deeper into research-backed practices of foundational computer science pedagogy.
