Hey Frisco! Great news! We have re-opened for in-person lessons and still offering online lessons too. Please reach out to us via email, phone call, or text if you want to come in and check it out. We're offering 30-minute in-person or virtual complementary trials! We're excited to be teaching Silicon Valley's #1 kids coding program in the DFW area. Technology is advancing everywhere, exciting the minds of kids who want to use it to make, play, and share ideas. Our classes create creative problem solvers and technical entrepreneurs who learn that they can use code to change their world for the better.
At theCoderSchool, we want to do more than just teach coding. We want aspiring coders to use their newfound passion as a stepping stone to thinking outside the box, as a way to channel their ideas in a creative way, and most importantly, to have fun. Interested? Fill out the form and we will be in touch shortly to tell you more!
Code Coaching® works for kids of all ages and skill levels, from novice to advanced. From game development to web apps, Python to Java, or even niche technologies like AI and beyond, our Coaches can help your kids achieve their goals.
Sessions run one or two hours a week (your choice), at the same time every week on a schedule that works for both you and our assigned Coach. Check out our video for more info!
We believe that every student learns in his or her own way, not only in what they want to work on, but how fast and how much. Our Coder Tree® is a visualization of our students' learning options as they grow and a sampling of some of the topics we teach. Find more details about what kids are learning by checking out our Coder Tree®.
Our suite of proprietary tools* chart weekly progress by tracking concepts and apps, and longer term progress by identifying skills to build their individual Coder Tree®. Get an idea of our progress tools by clicking through a Sample Student's Student Portal to see for yourself.

Each year, theCoderSchool partners with the Congressional App Challenge, a nationwide coding contest run by districts of the U.S. Congress. Take a look at our recent winners, or ask about our App Gallery to see more apps!
Get ready for our fun and interactive camps coming this summer! This year we will be hosting our camps virtually and in-person, you decide! All camps will be week-long from Monday to Friday.
Our Virtual classes will be hosted through Zoom, which is simple to set up. Once you sign up for a lesson, we will provide a quick and easy guide on getting started with Zoom. Check out all of our cool camp themes for this year, including Scratch, Python, Minecraft, and Robotics!
Resources for virtual camps:
Full-day camps - In-Person camps are listed below and will be hosted at the school from 9am -2pm. Students will bring their lunch from home every day, except for the last day. On Friday, we will be celebrating with a pizza party provided by us for their hard work and dedication to creating an end-of-the-week project presented by each kid explaining their projects. For any concerns regarding Covid-19, we have taken proactive measures. We have been hosting in-person lessons since June of 2020 without issues. We are currently considering information on a week-to-week basis to update measures.

This is a beginner-level program for our students from ages 6-11 years old. It is a block-based language, meaning kids will be using color-coded drag-and-drop blocks so that the code is easier to understand and so they don't have to type very much. Scratch allows students to be creative and enjoy lessons while learning with endless possibilities. We can create games, quizzes, tools, kid-friendly memes, and much more!
Interested in signing up or curious about other times offered. Please reach out to us 469-362-8228 or frisco@thecoderschool.com.
**Now offering an In-Person class!***
This beginner code class for ages 8-14 teaches students the fundamentals of computer programming through Python. A newer and most popular coding language. Python is text based, meaning kids will be typing out each line of their code mainly using sites like Trinket. In Trinket we allow our students to use their imagination and creativity in making games, quizzes, etc! Please call us for a free 30 minute trial!
