In our STEM school clubs and camps, kids dive into technology, learning how their favorite games, robots and computers work! With lots of choice and guidance, we place kids in the “coder seat” programming games, animations, robots, circuits and more. Collaboration, laughter, inquisitive minds practice how to solve unexpected problems. Along the way, they grow in their confidence creating with technology, and start developing the skills needed in our ever-growing digital world.
