programs make learning fun!

With science programs introduced to kids as early as two years, kids are introduced to things like engineering, physics, math, chemistry and more! Older kids will explore their interests and do things like build Minecraft worlds, build robots, learn about space, rockets and race cars, all using STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math). These engaging and sometimes repeatable classes teach kids to problem solve, work in groups and have fun doing hands-on experiments.

200340 / Minecraft Engineering

Does your child love Minecraft? Imagine if children learn Civil Engineering and City Planning while they are in a Minecraft world. Students work as civil engineers and city planners to design and create a structured city that includes roads, bridges, and city zones containing housing, stores, libraries, schools and more. Minecraft Java Edition is used in the classroom as the tool for hands-on learning. We inspire future Engineers using Minecraft. Students should be familiar with using a computer, mouse and Minecraft.

200342 / LEGO Robotics Academy

The LEGO Robotics Academy is a comprehensive, repeatable after school program where children learn to design, build and program robots, using LEGO Education robotics. Using Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM), this class is led by teacher-led instruction followed by fun, engaging and dynamic activities. Students are introduced to basic robotics and mechanical engineering concepts by building and coding a different project each week. Independent building challenges will be given to students as they progress through levels. The Robotics Academy is a repeatable program where children are placed based on skill and experience. Students move up a level each time they take the class in order to take on more advanced concepts and activities.

215215 / Brainy Kids

Children are born ready to learn, and their brains develop more in the first five years than at any other time in their lives. Whether or not children are already in a preschool program, participating in multiple learning experiences better prepares them for kindergarten and beyond. These enrichment classes feature subjects that engage children and offer opportunities for social, physical and intellectual growth. Regardless of the subject, all enrichment sessions include practice with reading, scissors and pencils.
