Program Description

Event Details

Girls Who Code Club is a community of 3rd through 5th grade girls who design, code, read, and explore the world of computer science together. Each meeting, taking place every other Thursday, features activities, discussions, and creative challenges based on the best-selling "Girls Who Code" books. GWC Club is designed to expose girls to bravery, resilience, and computational thinking through fun activities, social opportunities, inspiring stories of women in technology, and creative challenges.

This fall, our 3rd-5th grade club will take place online via password-protected Zoom meetings. Some activities may require craft materials that will be provided by the library through curbside pickup (details to come). Club members must have an email address (a parent's is acceptable) and access to a device that will allow them to utilize Zoom, the Girls Who Code HQ website, and Scratch.mit.edu. 

Registration will open on July 20, 2020 at 9:00 a.m. and is limited to 10 girls in 3rd, 4th, and 5th grades. Three waitlist spots will also be available. For questions, contact Jacqueline Belden at jbelden@kckpl.org.
