Learning to Code is a critical skill for children to learn! Much like learning another language, it’s best to have kids learn about programming concepts early and often! In our Scratch Jr class, kids will learn coding concepts including computer automation and linear sequencing. They will make short stories, apply elements of animation, and create their own sprites and objects – all using technology and coding fundamentals!
This STEAM-focused course introduces students to the exciting and multifaceted world of digital art. Through a series of creative projects, students will learn the fundamentals of graphic design, image editing, digital storytelling, and more. Sample projects include a birthday card, a poster for an imaginary movie, and a simple animation.
One of the best ways to get kids excited is to allow them to create something of their own. In class, students bring their imaginations to life in full, 3D color and create games they can play including Frogger Freeway, Underwater Diving, and Sports Games.

By modifying (modding) Minecraft’s underlying code, kids create powerful objects and special powers that do not normally exist in the game.
Kids learn to code their own mods using a drag and drop interface - students literally “hack” the game and bring their imaginations to life - all while learning Java fundamentals (a widely used programming language).
Each themed class has a specific focus and can be taken in any order! Best of all, kids can test, play, and share their mods so the entire class can play together using their own Minecraft server.
This club is filled with educational opportunities to enrich your child’s ability to communicate, socialize, and work on in-game skills/strategies. Using a mix of team activities, skill development/drills, and guided free play, students become better players and teammates.
We balance on-screen gameplay with off-screen activities to help kids think critically about gaming while building healthy gaming habits and developing their skills around teamwork, leadership, collaboration, and trust!
Students will design, code and play their own 3D worlds with Roblox Studio!
Students code using the programming language Lua which is currently the leading scripting language used in games. Roblox’s special version of this language – Roblox Lua, enhances the experience as students manipulate environments and program while having fun.
From Obbys (obstacle courses) to creating Simulator Games, our Roblox Studio Code classes allow kids to publish the games they make – showing friends why Roblox Lua is so awesome!

Ever heard of Cookie Clicker or Venture Capitalist video games? These hugely popular games represent an ‘auto clicker” or incremental game genre! In this class, students will create their own auto clicker game. Students will program a game so that when a button is clicked on the keyboard, they can increase their score. With the increased score, they can spend points on upgrades in a shop system (also created by the student) to increase their score further! Students will utilize coding concepts such as conditionals, loops, type casting, and variables to create their own exciting clicker game that even their friends can play.
Prior Python experience not required.

Time to create your own video game! Learn coding fundamentals of Python while creating your own version of a classic video game genre. Using the same mechanics found in popular games such as Tetris, Space Invaders, and Animal Crossing you can build your own video game with customized characters, backdrops, and the “quest” of the game. Throughout the class, we will build upon your game, create start menus, and design multiple levels of difficulty. Get ready to amaze family and friends with your own video game creation!
No iPads or Tablets
Prerequisite: Python
We all use web-based apps to shop, communicate, play games, and so much more!
This course teaches the building blocks to program and design interactive websites with emphasis on creative design and technical learning. Students build and customize dynamic websites and mobile-friendly apps using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
Modding in Minecraft is one of the best ways for kids to learn computer science – giving students the chance to create powerful objects and special powers that do not normally exist in the game- all while learning Java (a widely used programming language.)
