Our camps generally have a low-ratio of students per coach. Ask your location for specifics as it can vary. Camp instructors are Code Coaches® who have successfully gone through our onboarding process and are coders that know how to teach coding skills to kids. Each camp has recommendations around age and skill level, but all are open to discussion based on your child’s experience with coding.
Welcome to theCoderSchool, a place that teaches coding camps and a whole lot more during the school year. Founded in 2014 and headquartered in Silicon Valley, theCoderSchool believes every kid is unique, and we treat them that way. Our core program revolves around a mentor relationship with experienced coders, Code Coaches who can guide our students through their amazing - and custom - technical journey.

| Week | Format | Camp | Ages | Price |
| 6/8 - 6/12 | 9:00am-3:00pm | Game Development 1 Don’t just play games...make them! Our popular game design class teaches creative coding in a fun way using MIT’s popular “Scratch” platform. Scratch uses drag ‘n drop blocks allowing students to assemble code quickly and get to the fun part: making games, playing them, and unleashing their imaginative instincts! Game design is a fun way to engage problem solving skills and learn computer science fundamentals like loops, conditionals, and variables. In addition, students develop and apply math concepts including coordinate geometry, negative numbers, angles and boolean logic.Learn More Ages 8-10 | Ages 8-10 | (Use code SUMMER26 at checkout!) |
| 6/8 - 6/12 | 9:00am-3:00pm | Python Startup 1 The AI era is here. Python is now more popular than ever in real-world applications: artificial intelligence and data science. This small group class will use a Python platform to explore fundamental concepts, develop general problem solving skills, and enhance logical thinking skills. It will dive into fun projects that engage creative thinking and more complex coding. Students will learn Python syntax (loops, variables, line structure, etc), function calls, Cartesian Coordinates, and more! Learn More Ages 10-15 | Ages 10-15 | (Use code SUMMER26 at checkout!) |
| 6/15 - 6/19 | 9:00am-3:00pm | 3D Modeling 1 Have you ever wanted to design your own furniture or spaceship model? Create your ideal superhero or imaginary animal character to star in an animated cartoon? Develop a personalized symphony using digital tools? Digital Arts Studio is designed for the next generation of budding artists and creatives. Flex your creative skills: no coding is needed for Digital Arts Studio. Students will learn the foundations of 3D digital design using Blender, a 3D computer graphics software toolset. From that foundation, they’ll add color and depth and progressively advance to more complex shapes and designs – trees, snow people, pizzas, houses, and so on. Bring your best creative visions and learn how to make them a digital reality! Ages 10-15 | Ages 10-15 | (Use code SUMMER26 at checkout!) |
