About
theCoderSchool offers private and semi-private coaching, coding classes, and robotics. Kids work with languages and tools such as Python, Scratch, and video game coding, and can join both in-person and virtual learning options.
• Schedule: Virtual and in-person options available
theCoderSchool was founded in 2013 and is headquartered in Silicon Valley. Its core program uses a super-small student-to-teacher ratio, typically 2:1, and focuses on a mentor relationship with experienced coders called Code Coaches. It runs an after-school drop-off and virtual program for kids learning to code, and also offers an AppStream product for new coders through an online weekly video format, along with a National Top App of the Month program for student-created apps. The leadership team at this location includes Hansel and Wayne.
As a longtime partner of the Congressional App Challenge (CAC), theCoderSchool is involved in encouraging innovation through coding across the country. Beginning in 2025–2026, it is collaborating with CAC to run a national recognition program to identify a handful of top applications from thousands of CAC submissions nationwide. Its mission statement describes it as a place where kids learn to code in cool startup-vibe locations.
Parent testimonials describe customized curriculum and online learning experiences. One parent from New Jersey with 23 years in IT describes the customized curriculum as unlike anything else they have seen. Parents from California and Georgia describe their children’s online classes and camps as engaging, with instructors and staff they describe as helpful, and mention their kids creating games and continuing to work on them between sessions. Another parent from Connecticut notes that their kids were very excited about the Scratch camp and plan to return.
