After-school classes, summer camps, weekend & homeschool sessions. ISTE & NGSS aligned. 4,000+ families served 🤖 Star Kids Academy Robotics is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit based in Cupertino, CA, founded by Coach David — a lifelong educator with 28+ years working with children and 11+ years leading robotics programs. What started as a small after-school class has grown into a Bay Area community of 4,000+

families. Today we run hands-on robotics, coding, and STEAM programs for kids ages 5–13 through:

🛠️ **After-school classes** at partner schools across Cupertino, Sunnyvale & San Jose
🏕️ **Summer camps** at our Cupertino HQ — 8 themed weeks for Juniors (grades 1–2) and Seniors (grades 3–6)
📚 **Mentorship, weekend & homeschool programs** for families with custom schedules
🎓 **NEW for 2026 — Kindergarten Robotics** (ages 5–6, play-based STEM)

Every program is **ISTE Standards** and **NGSS aligned**, capped at a 12:1 student-to-teacher ratio, and taught using real curriculum, real tools, and real engineering processes — never busywork. As a nonprofit, we believe **cost should never keep a kid out of robotics.** Scholarships are available at every camp session and every location.

Summer 2026 is officially underway at Star Kids Robotics and we have already had an incredible first half!

We kicked off the summer with Intro to Robotics where our youngest engineers learned data types, motor control, color sensors, line following, obstacle avoidance, and even played Cat and Mouse with EV3 robots. From there we jumped into Robot Gaming 1.0, one of our all time favorite camps ever, where students coded and played Mario Kart, Rocket League, Pac-Man, Hunger Games, and Wally's World, and built a fully functional Hungry Hippos pinball machine. Last week we wrapped up Agricultural Robotics (EcoBots) where students built a strawberry picking tractor rover, a self seeding and self watering farm bot on an XYZ coordinate system, and a solar tracking plant that followed the brightest light in the room.

Three weeks in and the energy, creativity, and smiles have been non stop. These kids are absolutely incredible and we are just getting started.

The second half of summer is going to be even bigger with CarBots, BattleBots, AniBots Humanoid Robotics, Robotics Extravaganza featuring a live demo from the Fremont High School Robotics Team on July 31st, and Robot Gaming 2.0 to close out the season.

EcoBots camp starts Monday June 22 in Cupertino and we have a few spots left.

This week kids build and program robots that interact with the real world — self-watering plant systems, automatic recycling sorters, solar-powered robots, smart home automation, and more. These are real engineering concepts being developed right now to solve some of the biggest challenges on the planet, and your child will spend a week building and coding them hands on.
Monday through Friday, June 22-26. 9am to 3pm. 10181 Finch Ave, Cupertino. Grades 1-6. No experience needed. $450 for the week while ticket price lasts.

BattleBots is not just a TV show. It is a real engineering discipline that requires structural design, strategic programming, and the ability to think on your feet when your robot takes a hit. Our BattleBots camp July 13 through 17 brings all of that to life for kids in grades 1 through 6.
