CodeHoppers is back!

Last night marked the first session of our newly revamped CodeHoppers program, giving middle school students and their parents an opportunity to explore 3D printing through hands-on learning.

CodeHoppers introduces students in grades 6–8 to computer science and technology through activities including coding, cybersecurity, AI, Micro:bits, Raspberry Pi, Arduino and more.

Missed the first session? There’s still time to join us! Our next CodeHoppers session is Oct. 13 from 6–7:30 p.m. on Augusta University’s Summerville Campus.

The program is free, but registration is required and parents must remain with their students during each session.

We’re excited to continue creating opportunities for young learners to code, connect and empower! 💙🧡
