Charter Schools

Fun. Educational. Challenging. Exciting. Engaging. Imaginative.

These are just some of the words our charter school parents use to describe the Simply Coding approach to teaching young students the science of computer programming.

At Simply Coding, we appreciate the feedback and involvement of our charter school families. Like them, we advocate a culture of learning to goes beyond the norm in ways that enrich a youth’s educational experience. It’s why we’ve structured our online and classroom coding instruction programs to fit in better with the lifestyles of charter school parents. We understand no two young students are alike and how they learn is as unique as their personalities and behaviors.

Our Common Goals

We share the forward looking vision of charter school parents. Our methods of teaching computer programming are geared to provide young students with the competitive edge they need to embrace the challenges of tomorrow’s technological world. We’ve structured a pathway that provides them with powerful skill sets they can utilize to gain advantages in college admissions, internships and post-secondary school career opportunities.

Simply Coding instruction programs are designed by professional programmers who understand how to transition students from a mindset of consuming software to one that excites them to write the code that power the games they play and websites they visit. Our coding instruction programs resonate with young people because when they speak, we listen. We continually adjust our instruction methods and content according to the feedback we receive from thousands of students who have participated in our classes.

A Better Way To Learn Coding

We make learning how to code fun because we’ve learned that fun is what keeps young people engaged. Fun is the ingredient we use to stretch their imaginations and inspire their creativity. By making coding fun, we’re able to tickle their creative thirst so they’ll want to learn even more.

Don’t let how we simplified coding instruction fool you into thinking we’re only about fun. To the contrary, we are mentors and motivators who share your commitment to provide young people with educational experiences that build minds and character. The disciplines they learn in our coding classes become fundamental building blocks they can apply at every stage of their educational paths. In teaching students how to code better, we help them to think smarter.

We know from experience every kid is unique. It’s why we allow them to learn coding at their own pace. Our live, online chat support provides them with a safe, comfortable and individualized learning environment where questions are encouraged and parental involvement is welcomed.

Charter School Experience Matters

At Simply Coding, we take pride in our extensive experience working with charter school parents and organizations. The following outline details how we customize coding instruction programs:

The Simply Coding Role:

To provide a pathway of coding instruction for students that enhances college and career readiness. Students learn coding in its native environment (text editors, ide) to provide them with a real world experience. These courses are the next step after Scratch and other block coding instruction programs. Simply Coding provides live mentor chat support for all students along the pathway.

The coding instruction pathway for students includes:

Basic web development (HTML, CSS, and JavaScript);
Responsive website design with Bootstrap – websites will scale to screen size of the device such as desktop, tablet and smart phone (HTML, CSS and JavaScript);
Browser game design (JavaScript);
Advanced browser game design (JavaScript);
Object oriented programming including client/server relationships (Python, Java);
Advanced Java for AP CS Preparation (Java); and
App development (Java, Swift)

Throughout the above learning pathways, students will be creating their own online portfolios that help them become more career ready. These completed projects will be easily accessible online so they can explain in detail the scope of their accomplishments during future job or internship interviews.

Students will become college ready and well-prepared for enrollment in higher level educational courses including but not limited to UVU’s, CS 1030 or CS 1400.

The Charter School Role:

The Charter School will partner with Simply Coding by providing:

A teacher willing to go through the courses so they can learn how to answer basic questions. Simply Coding will train the teacher (preferred), parent or involved adult.
The Charter School will provide once a week after-school computer lab access.
The Charter School will facilitate notification to parents of information about the program (email, Facebook, flyers, etc.)

Cost of the program will be paid for by individual parents on an affordable, reoccurring monthly basis. Simply Coding will collect revenue received and pay the Charter School a percentage of fees collected each month to provide funding that supports other school initiatives.
