Coding & Digital Creation at Casis
Code Kids is a project based after school program at Casis Elementary for students in grades 2 through 5. Students learn to bring their ideas to life through coding, animation, video creation, digital design, and 3D printing. Through hands on projects, students do not just use technology, they create with it.
Students can enroll in one or both programs for the 2026-2027 school year:
