I was never exposed to computer science until well into high school as well, and even then there were no formal classes offered. I wonder if we are too old to have felt the emphasis that current schoolchildren feel. I attended an all-girls high school, where computer science was promoted to us as a field desperately in need of more female coders. It was emphasized to us how tech companies seek gender diversity and the perks that come with working in tech like pay, cool office spaces, etc.
