Independent Study Spotlight: Computer Science

In the High School, eligible students may undertake an Independent Project in Computer Science, overseen by a faculty member and extending from one to three trimesters.
This year, Liam W. '22 proposed building a Wordpress website from scratch and creating a custom theme. Leaning on his experience with computers and servers (even bringing in his own!), he first created a Ubuntu Linux server by installing the necessary software and then moved on to installing Wordpress and a MySQL database. He is now focusing on Wordpress customization.
 
Jason R. (Computer Science) writes that Liam "continues to show his strengths in an area where he is clearly comfortable and is brave enough to know that mistakes are an excellent place to learn."can
