#2Good on you! The world needs more hard-working and passionate teachers.
FYI the University of Texas at Austin has a similar camp: First Bytes[1], which is free to attend if you get accepted.

#4> where the teen pregnancy rate is around 95.46% (per 1,000 females ages 15 to 19)[1]
small point, but this is inconsistent - I suspect you mean 9.546%. a 95% teen pregnancy rate would be somewhat surprising ...

Here's the government data I referenced, I am using my specific hometown neighborhood zipcode "11717", it's 94.5% between 2006-2008.

I believe the data, but the numbers given on that data sheet aren't percentages :-)
> Pregnancy rates are the number of pregnancies per 1,000 females age 15 to 19 years
95.46 pregnancies / 1000 females = 9.546%
(actually, you can't infer an exact percentage of girls who became pregnant from this statistic, as one female can have multiple pregnancies within a year, but you get what I mean)

cut some slack - maybe she's busy you know, helping 30-odd underpriveledged kids expand their horizons. when the heck did this community start only focussing on the nitpicking? as the OP said 'small point'...
