From parents in Rocklin

What changed for their child:

We tried everything

"We tried sports, clubs, music lessons. Nothing stuck. This is the first thing he looks forward to every week."

Hackingtons parent

Screen time guilt, gone

"I was worried about more screen time. Then he started explaining the code to me. That changed everything."

Hackingtons parent

Found his people

"My kid found friends who actually share his interests. He talks about them at dinner like teammates."

Hackingtons parent

Confidence shift

"He loves it more than anything he's ever done. The confidence change is the biggest thing. He explains what he built."

What your kid's summer looks like

10 weeks. Here's the arc.

WEEK 1

First class is free

Your kid walks in nervous. Meets their team and instructor. Walks out wanting to come back. That is the whole goal of week 1.

WEEKS 2-3

First real project

They pick a track (coding, game dev, or engineering) and start building something they own. By week 3 you'll hear them talk about it at dinner.

WEEKS 4-6

Found their people

Friendships form. Evening social events kick in. Tournaments, build nights, arcade night. You start hearing your kid's classmates' names.

WEEKS 7-9

It works

The game runs. The robot moves. The website goes live. That's the shift parents talk about — when their kid stops asking for help and starts asking for materials.

WEEK 10

Showcase

Your kid demos what they built. To you. To other parents. To their team. Then they ask if they can keep going in the fall. Most do.

The one thing a coding app cannot do

Sign up with a friend. Same team, same time.

A coding app puts your kid in a bedroom by themselves. We put them at a table next to their best friend, building the same project, hitting the same milestones. The whole summer just got better for both of you.

Real projects, made by kids.

There's nothing like having your child be proud of what they made.
