AFTER SCHOOL COMPUTER SCIENCE
Coding for Kids and Teens
Location: online delivery
Enrichment programs – both academic and non-academic – are excellent opportunities for students to learn more about themselves, their skill sets, and explore their interests outside of the regular classroom setting. Enrichment programs are also a great way for students to begin making connections between their interests and post-secondary planning.
Due to COVID-19, many summer program providers have shifted to online delivery. Please use filter "Online" to search for virtual offerings.
Please note: We are highlighting programs that we have received information on. This is by no means an exhaustive list of opportunities open to high school students.
Meadowridge School does not promote any particular provider nor receive any financial interests.
Many of these enrichment programs would meet the Gold Project Requirement for Duke of Edinburgh (DoE). Please refer to DoE Program details.
