Grades 3-8 · Scratch to Python · Year-round — enroll any time
At STEMForce Academy, kids don’t just learn to code — they build real games, apps, and projects. Our Code Agents pathway runs through six structured levels, from Level 1 Recruit Coder using block-based tools like Scratch to Level 6 Elite Code Agent shipping original projects in professional software. Students progress at their own pace with real coaching in small groups, right here in Martinsburg, WV.
Beginners build logic, sequencing, and debugging skills in Scratch and MakeCode.
Students step up to Python, JavaScript, and Lua — real languages, real syntax.
Advanced coders ship original games and apps in GameMaker, Unity, and more.
Low ratios mean every coder gets guidance, not a one-size lecture.
Sessions run all year with flexible enrollment, so your child can start when your schedule allows and keep progressing at their own pace.
Start any time. Flexible weekly sessions mean no waiting for a semester to begin.

Classes run from our academy in downtown Martinsburg, WV, welcoming families across Berkeley County and the Eastern Panhandle — plus nearby Charles Town, Hagerstown, MD, and Winchester, VA.
Our core Code Agents coding classes serve grades 3-8 (roughly ages 8-14). Younger coders in grades K-2 can start with block coding in MiniMakers, and high schoolers continue in STEM Operatives.
No. Level 1 starts with block-based coding — no typing or syntax required. Students who already code are placed at the right level after a brief skills check.
The pathway moves from Scratch and MakeCode to Python, Lua, and JavaScript, and finally to professional tools like GameMaker and Unity.
Classes run all year with flexible enrollment windows, so you can start when your schedule allows — no waiting for a semester.
