Summer 2020 Coding Classes
Choose online or in-person
Due to Covid-19 concerns, most of our summer classes will run online. We offer the same great teachers, the same great curriculum, and the same excellent coding platform that has always been cloud-based. Unlike other online classes, we encourage students to keep their microphones on, and we limit our online classes to a maximum enrollment of 5 students per class.
Don’t see a class that works for your child? We also offer private and semi-private sessions online or in-person in JavaScript, Web Programming, Python, and AP Java.
