Column Editor’s note: In this column Angelina Chen, a current high school student, writes about the importance of data science education for the pre-college crowd, and in particular for secondary (high school) students.  This is the perspective of one student whose father is a statistician, but the lessons she has learned along the way are more broadly applicable.  How can we as a field improve the teaching of our subject at the school-age level?  By the time young people reach university, it may already be too late to attract them to our exciting disciplines.  We welcome other perspectives on these questions from students and teachers.  A companion column on the new GAISE II report sheds some light on current efforts in this direction.
