A Little Bit About MACSO

MACSO (Massachusetts Computer Science Olympiad) is one of the largest competitive programming organizations in Massachusetts. Since our founding, we've hosted competitions with 350+ participants, secured over $80,000 in sponsorships and prizes, and reached students across Massachusetts and around the world through our competitions, educational initiatives, and outreach.

As we prepare for our biggest summer competition yet, we're looking for motivated students to join our leadership team and help grow the organization.
