Coding Club (2023-2024)

⚙️Hybrid Program

Join us for a year-long learning journey in our themed Clubs that allow students to build expertise in a skill vertical, earn micro-credentials issued by Digital Promise.  All clubs get access to our award winning online learning platform “STEAM Hub” at no additional cost so learning can continue at home.

Our clubs focus on:

• Purpose driven learning
• Focus on foundational to deep development
• Project based learning
• Progressive growth with exposure to variety of tools

The Coding Club is designed to provide students with an opportunity to explore the field of coding and develop their coding skills in a supportive and collaborative environment. Through a series of interactive and engaging activities, students will learn how to code using different programming languages and tools, and how to apply coding skills to real-world problems.

At the end of the year, if students are enrolled in the full 3 terms, they will earn a micro-credential endorsed by Digital Promise. The badge will be issued and can be included in student portfolio.
