Programs

We All Code Programs are built on our single-day, interactive Classes. During these 3-to-5 hour weekend sessions, kids learn about one specific coding topic, like HTML 1.0.

Classes progress in skill level and can be combined to create full Courses in HTML, CSS, Python, and Javascript.

Step by step instruction.
A whole lot of fun!
