Visitors to the 黑料社 website now enjoy an easier time exploring campus鈥攖hanks to a group of innovative students in the Introduction to Computer Programming: HTML (T3 2025) class. Under the guidance of STEM Faculty member Mr. Timothy Smith, students spent the spring trimester building an interactive HTML-based campus map from the ground up.

The project was a full-class collaboration, with students divided into teams to manage different technical aspects. One group identified the exact x-y coordinates of buildings on a base image file. Another sourced and verified building URLs from the school鈥檚 website. A third team brought it all together, writing and testing the HTML code to link the coordinates and URLs seamlessly.

鈥淭his was a hands-on way for students to apply what they鈥檝e learned in a meaningful, visible way,鈥� said Mr. Smith. 鈥淭hey weren鈥檛 just coding for practice鈥攖hey were solving a real-world problem and building something the School can use.鈥�

The students whose work appears on the new map are:
Mateo C. 鈥�25
Mitch D. 鈥�25
Nate H. 鈥�25
Javi M. 鈥�25
John M. 鈥�25
Jaden M. 鈥�25
Alex M. 鈥�26
Andrew M. 鈥�26
Cole P. 鈥�26
Alec S. 鈥�26

The final HTML version was consolidated and polished by Mr. Smith before being submitted to the School鈥檚 local web developer, Jonathan Matson at . With the new map live, visitors are able to click on different buildings to learn more about each location across the Hillside.

Congratulations to these student programmers for bringing their technical skills to life in a project that will serve the entire 黑料社 Kent community.
