A Program of Lumen Path Foundation
PyCode Academy is a program of Lumen Path Foundation. We conduct year-round computer science and AI training classes for middle and high school students. Our goal is to nurture students' passion for computer science and equip them with critical thinking and problem-solving skills crucial for future STEM careers.
Anyone interested in learning to code or taking their skills to the next level in programming competitions! The program is mainly for middle/high school students, but younger students with prior experience may also join. All activities are conducted online, so members can join from any region.
Beginners learn Python and students who are proficient in a programming language compete in and learn concepts for computer science competitions. See the Classes page for more information including curriculum and dates/times for the current school year.
With the increasing role of AI and technology in our lives, learning to code today is like learning to read in the 1700s. Coding and participating in programming competitions are fun ways to improve your problem-solving skills, and gateways to exciting future careers. Watch this video from code.org to learn more about coding.
The main goal of our program is to improve your critical thinking and problem solving skills. These are transferable skills to any area in the future. If you gain these valuable skills, you will also become a much faster and productive programmer with modern day coding tools. Ultimately, we need smart people to make AI tools better—they need to be developed too!
