Freedom Crossing Academy - Spring Session 1 - RoboThink Robotics Afterschool 2027
Join us at Freedom Crossing Academy every Thursday afterschool! In this program, students will have a blast exploring the world of robotic technologies as they build, learn and play. Each week, students dive into exciting hands-on STEM adventures—building robotic models, exploring engineering challenges, and discovering the science behind how things work. Our step-by-step lessons make learning fun while reinforcing key STEM concepts in a creative, engaging way. Perfect for first-time builders and exciting for experienced roboticists, our classes are led by trained instructors who skillfully support both new and advanced students at the same time. Designed for ages 5–14.
Open to all FCA students, both Extended Day AND students not enrolled in Extended Day. For Extended Day students, the cost for RoboThink registration is in addition to Extended Day enrollment costs. For grades K-8 (must be at least 5 years old).
AFTERSCHOOL ROBOTICS PROGRAM
• Using our proprietary 8-level robotics and coding curriculum, students advance through engineering levels: Junior Engineer 1 through Master Engineer
• Start Anytime — No Experience Needed!
Jump in any week! New students begin at Lesson 1 and move forward each class, so nothing is missed mid session. Returning builders pick up where they left off, advancing through our 8-level engineering program with no repeated lessons.
