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!
Let's get ready for summer camps! This summer we will be holding both in-person and online summer camps as our community continues to face the realities of the COVID-19 pandemic. We will operate our in-person camps according to all North Carolina's health guidelines. Take advantage of our incredible early bird discounted pricing if registered by 2/15/2022.
Note that Yellow, Green and Red Camps offer different projects so coders can sign up for any camp with no pre-requisites. By signing up for multiple camps coders continue their skill development and stay engaged without repeating projects.
These camps will run from 9:00 am to 3:00 pm Mon-Fri with a lunch break from 11:45 am to 1:00 pm. Camp will be a mixture of working on a week-long coding project, coding challenges, break-out rooms and screen-free breaks and of course, the chance to present their project to their fellow campers on the last day of camp!
Our In-Person Summer Camps are held at theCoderSchool Raleigh and will have limited seats to maintain social distancing guidelines. Kids bring their own lunches and water bottles and we'll take care of the rest! Extended care will be available during the week after 3:00 PM, please pay at front-desk on the day 1 of the camp.
IMPORTANT COVID-19 NOTE: For the In-Person camps, we recommend all students, coaches and staff to wear face masks but not mandatory and our facility will be organized for campers to maintain social distancing. Lastly, if theCoderSchool decides to change in-person camp to Online camp due to safety reasons, we will reach out to each parent.
Our Online Summer Camps will use Zoom. Campers will be required to have the following minimum technology available at home:
Beyond Camps: Our year around program builds upon their camp experience. Coding Camp is like a Piano camp, you learn basic skill during the camp. However if you would like to be a Pianist - you take year-around lesson. We are open for "In-Person" and "ONLINE" classes for Kids to continue their coding lessons in our year-around program. Sign-up for a free trial lesson here or email us at raleigh@thecoderschool.com.

Hey parents, love our school? Give us a review!
Hi, My name is Brandon and I'm the General Manager of theCoderSchool. I have four kids who keeps me pretty busy. I have been in the education field for the past 9 years and look forward to bringing my experience to the kids at theCoderSchool. I feel the earlier we can get kids learning computer science, the better off the next generation of 21st century will be. I have recently moved to North Carolina from Texas. When I am not teaching, I enjoy watching sports. You must know that I am a huge Houston Rocket's fan. I look forward to getting to know each of you and can't wait to go on this coding journey with you! Email me anytime at brandon@thecoderschool.com. Code on my friend!
I am a co-owner of the Raleigh location and very excited to be part of theCoderSchool family. I have spent almost twenty years of my life working with computers in Programming and Management roles. At work, I have been helping my clients in the Healthcare industry to ensure customer satisfaction which I feel is the key to any successful business. As a parent of two young boys, I am always being challenged to learn new things and they inspire me with their logical skills. Impressed with theCoderSchool customized coaching approach to meet the kid's and parent's needs, hence took over this wonderful opportunity. I strongly believe with proper support and guidance every child can build and improve their coding skills which is much needed in this technology driven world. I look forward to using my experience to help create brilliant coders for the future!!! Need more information? Please email me at kiran@thecoderschool.com.
I am the son of a schoolteacher and social entrepreneur who spent her entire life empowering children through education. My life’s mission is to follow her footsteps and give back to the society. It is a fact that computers are changing the world around us and how we are doing day-to-day business. Even by my own example of being a registered civil engineer by profession, it is no surprise that 90% of my work is accomplished in front of a computer. I passionately believe in Steve Job’s statement that “everyone in this country should learn to program a computer because it teaches you how to think". No matter what our kids choose as a career, be it art, music, medicine, engineering, or anything they imagine, learning to Code will provide them an edge. Hope you give us the privilege to be a building block in your child’s bright future. I am available to answer any questions you may have by email at sharat@thecoderschool.com.
