PJC Offering Coding Camps In Paris, Sulphur Springs And Greenville

Paris Junior College offers six free, week-long Robotics Coding Camps that take an interactive approach to designing and coding robots by creating and using Sphero BOLT and VEX V5 robots. Campers will be presented with challenging and innovative concepts in learning, problem-solving, and analytical skills while fostering an interest in computer coding/programming.

Each one-week, no-cost day camp is for students entering the sixth, seventh, or eighth grade in the 2024-2025 school year or who have completed eighth grade in 2024. The camps will rotate among PJC locations in Paris, Greenville, and Sulphur Springs. The first registration deadline is July 2 for the PJC-Sulphur Springs Center camp, which begins July 8.

At Paris Junior College, we believe in creating an inclusive learning environment. That’s why we prioritize enrollment for foster youth, students with disabilities, students from low-income families, and students from populations underserved in STEM technical disciplines. We want every child to have the opportunity to explore the exciting world of robotics and coding.

Enrollment for our Robotics Coding Camps is limited, and spots fill up quickly. The application deadline is six days before the first camp date of the session you choose. We encourage you to apply early to secure a spot for your child. For more information and to download the application, visit https://www.parisjc.edu/main/coding-camp/. Please note that if all requested documents are not received by the deadline date, the application may not be considered. Parents or guardians will be notified if their child has been selected.
