What is HackJPS? HackJPS will be a hybrid (in person & virtual) hackathon hosted by students of John P. Stevens High School in Edison, NJ during the weekend of June 3rd, 2023. HackJPS was first hosted virtually in 2020 with over 300 participants, and was a great success. Participation will be open to middle and high school students (aged 13+). Participants may have any level of experience, or none at all. We are welcoming to beginners and experts alike! Additionally, participants will be able to attend in-person or virtual workshops hosted by sponsors or student organizations, exposing them to a multitude of other topics that might interest them. For more information and updates, make sure to join our Discord server and check out our website. Registration Please register for HackJPS here on Devpost as well as through our registration form. This is a requirement! Opening Ceremony Slides Anticipated Schedule All times are in EST. HackJPS will open shortly after 9:00 AM on June 3rd.
