From one of our recent classes, "Vidcode Virtual Coding Club":

"I love Coding Club! It is informational, challenging, and fun. It helps a lot to have somebody who can talk to us and show us and help us! This is also a good chance to see how things work, meet new people, and create things that could go on to being real famous masterpieces! Thank you for the amazing classes!"

One of our ongoing classes, "Coin Questions at the Library":

"It can be difficult to keep your student entertained while also engaging their mind during quarantine. To help remedy this, Phil Shapiro calls on his 20-year teaching experience to instill a love of learning and thinking in his students. His "Coin Questions at the Library" class will provide engaging and fun coin questions for students of all levels, equipping them with mental math skills that have direct real-life applications."

​"Start preparing for Thanksgiving (it’s never too soon) with the volunteer-run Homeschool Co-op’s online pie crust-making class. During this hourlong seminar, you’ll learn how to make one double crust or two single crusts from scratch. The organizers will send out a recipe in advance so that you can follow along from your kitchen."
