We wanted to share the videos from the Texas CSTA Chapters Conference last month with all CSTA Greater Houston members.  These can be shared with anyone who would benefit from these resources. We hope you will be able to participate in one or both events, February 2023, at the University of North Texas in Denton, Texas.
