To: lowa Governor's STEM Advisory Council
I am writing on behalf of the City of Dubuque to inform you that we support Audubon
School's endeavors to teach students foundational skills in computer science. The
Computer Science is Fundamental Grant is a great opportunity not only for Audubon
Elementary School, but would also serve as a great support for the Dubuque
Community School District and the broader Dubuque Community as we prepare our
young citizens for the 21 st Century work force.
The City of Dubuque is dedicated to helping students in our community achieve at a
high level and we believe that recipients of this grant will positively impact lives and
communities for years to come.
Thank you for considering Audubon Elementary School's application and for providing
this grant opportunity for schools in our state.
Sincerely,
`�J�� .
