Academy for Academic Excellence

 

Step into a cosmic laboratory and start exploring the universe. In our Astronomy class, students will investigate distant planets, shining stars, and familiar constellations while learning how space works. With hands-on activities and experiments, students will think and work like real astronomers as they explore the night sky.

 

Classes start February 2.  NO CLASS on February 16 and May 25.

 

Classes start February 5. 

 

From curious coder to confident creator!
Students will take their first steps into real-world technology by coding games, programming devices, and experimenting with circuits that buzz, blink, and move. More than just tech skills, this class helps kids develop problem-solving, persistence, and creativity. 

 

Classes start October 20

 

 

Bring imagination to life with tech magic!
In this class, young learners will explore the basics of coding and simple electronics in a playful, hands-on way. Through glowing lights and fun sounds, children discover that technology isn’t just something we use—it’s something they can create. This is the perfect space for curious kids to learn, build confidence, and see their big ideas come alive.
