Who Are We?
Code Ninjas is the nation’s fastest-growing kids coding franchise. In our in-school program, kids ages 5 to 10 explore the worlds of coding, robotics, game design, 3D printing, circuitry, and more through fun, hands-on activities. Our students build creativity, confidence, logic, and teamwork skills while working on exciting projects that make learning feel like play. Our promise is simple: Kids have fun, parents see results, and we live by it every day.
