CSTA Western Mass Chapter
Overview
The CSTA Western Mass Chapter is a part of the Computer Science Teachers Association, focusing on promoting and enhancing computer science education in Western Massachusetts. Before merging with CSTA Greater Boston to form CSTA Massachusetts, this chapter played a vital role in its region.

The chapter's primary goals include:
- Professional Development: Providing opportunities for K-12 computer science teachers to enhance their skills and stay updated with the latest teaching methods and technologies.
- Community Building: Creating a network of computer science educators in Western Massachusetts to share best practices, resources, and expertise.
- CS Education Advocacy: Advocating for the expansion and improvement of computer science education in local schools, aligning with broader CSTA objectives.

- Support the development of curriculum and teaching materials.
- Encourage participation in regional and national CSTA events.
Merger and Integration
The CSTA Western Mass Chapter merged with CSTA Greater Boston to form a unified chapter for Massachusetts. This integration has allowed for more comprehensive coverage across the state, supporting eight distinct regions and ensuring a strong presence in the competitive landscape of CS education. Despite the merger, the community's core objectives remain unchanged, focusing on growth, collaboration, and the advancement of computer science education in Massachusetts.
