Paris Junior College is offering a unique opportunity for middle school students with its series of Robotics Coding Camps. These free, week-long camps are set to ignite young minds through hands-on experiences with cutting-edge technology. Participants will engage with Sphero BOLT and VEX V5 robots, learning coding fundamentals and tackling design challenges under expert guidance.
The camps will be hosted at PJC campuses in Paris, Greenville, and Sulphur Springs from July through August 2024. Each session is tailored to students entering sixth, seventh, or eighth grade in the upcoming school year or those who completed eighth grade in 2024.
With a commitment to inclusivity, Paris Junior College prioritizes enrollment for foster youth, students with disabilities, those from low-income families, and other underserved populations in STEM disciplines.
