Welcome to the Fort Bend Coding Club at Quail Valley Middle School.
Here, students will be exposed to, learn, and practice the basics - intermediate - advanced levels of computer programming that is not only fun and interesting to students but also gives them a window to future paths that will be open to them. Along with foreign languages, coding is a language needed for careers of the future.
The students will learn and use different programming languages(ie text-based-[python, java script, html] and visual-based [block code]) to code. They use platforms such as(but not limited to) Replit, Code.org, Scratch, Turtle Art, etc... to create their coding, animations, games, and storytelling.
QVMS Coding Club inspires our students to be leaders and problem solvers in their lives and their community. We aim for our students to participate in the rigourous and challenging competitions held annually. We incorporate high school mentors, mostly former QVMS students from Dulles High School and Elkins High School, to facilitate lessons and support our coding club members to go into the community to display our skills and foster meaningful relationships today... tomorrow and beyond!
