Why A Kids Coding Club?

We have learned by experience that understanding technology can bolster any career and help create new opportunities for efficiency. Technology is much more than social apps and games. It is the stuff behind them; the logic, the syntax, the data and the critical thinking process that makes it all possible. The purpose of this club is to help our children be fearless with technology so they can be more effective at whatever they choose to do. Please join us in expanding the minds and the careers of our kids.
