Family Coding Night @ Molalla River MS
To Our K-8 Families,
We have some exciting news to share! Our middle school is participating in a Family Code Night, a learning event for all K-8 families. The event will be on Tuesday, February 28, at 6:00 PM at Molalla River Middle School. We encourage you to attend with your children--it's great fun and could inspire young talent.
What is Family Code Night? Watch the invitation video.
How can you participate? Join our event and register by February 24th by clicking this link.
Is coding experience needed? No! All you need is a shared computer, tablet, or Chromebook for each of the two family members connected to the internet. We will even supply the computer if needed.
Are there prizes? Yes! And everyone gets a Code@Home Guide, full of free coding games and activities.
I hope you and your children will join in for this family fun and shared learning. Make sure you register for this free event by February 24th. We’ll see you there!
