To Whom it May Concern:
I am looking for Computer Programming classes for kids in Gaithersburg. I haven’t been able to find anything for my 8 year old daughter! Do you know of anything? And she doesn’t have a computer yet-

Do you have a computer camp in Montgomery County, Maryland? Our children are in MCPS and have had enough of remote learning… We want them to attend a computer camp this summer, preferably in Gaithersburg, Silver Spring, or Bethesda. We particularly like the idea of Maryland summer camps. I would particularly like for my kids to learn coding or computer programming. Perhaps Scratch would be good for them. The idea of bringing them to a fun summer camp where they can code, make new friends, and have some outside time appeals to me.

Is there a summer camp for computers class? My 9 year old child wants to be a programmer. 🙂 I am looking for a summer camp situation for a week or 2 to give her a taste of computer programming. But not just playing games, I want her to have instruction. I’ve heard good things about kids learning Scratch. Help?

I have a comment regarding summer camp in Gaithersburg. Your summer camps rock. My child recently participated in the Panda Programmer Gaithersburg summer camp. It was 5 intense half-days of coding. Consequently my child loved it! Additionally the instructor made the topic fun and interesting for the children. Amazingly they actually taught 8 year old children programming. However they showed my child some amazing techniques. They used the Scratch programming language. As a result, it was a great experience, and we are looking forward to doing another summer day camp with Panda Programmer next year. And we prefer your summer camp in Gaithersburg if possible.
On another topic- Do you think you will be teaching in-school, after-school programs again this fall? I have heard many good things about Panda Programmer classes that are held in elementary and middle schools. And I heard that your curriculum allows students to progress from where they left their learning in previous classes. That’s a great system. I sure hope that the Montgomery county government (or MCPS) allows in-school after-school programs this coming fall. Otherwise, we’ll just come back to summer camps in Gaithersburg…
Thanks Panda Programmer!

Hello,
It is my understanding that MCPS does not teach computer programming to kids. At least not to elementary school aged kids. Is this true? Is Panda Programmer offering something that MCPS does not? And do you offer anything for summer camp coding?
