Think strategically. Solve creatively. Bring ideas to life.

Welcome to Griot Academy!

A chess move, a line of code, a moving robot—each gives children a different way to explore an idea.

In chess, students practice looking ahead, recognizing patterns and choosing their next move. In coding, they turn ideas into instructions, then test and refine what they create. In robotics, they build, test and discover how things work.

Our chess, coding and robotics programs serve Pre-K–8 learners across DC, Maryland and Virginia.

Families and schools: discover the possibilities at griotacademy.com.
