Greetings from Space! Coding, Creativity & Flying Marshmallows?!
What do coding, outer space, and parachuting marshmallows have in common? They're all part of Kai Coders' next out-of-this-world adventure, Greetings From Space!
In this 8-week workshop, students in grades 3–5 will explore space science, experiment with gravity, engineer parachutes to help their marshmallow astronauts land safely, and bring their cosmic creations to life using Scratch coding!
No coding experience necessary — just curiosity, creativity, and a willingness to try.
📅 Thursdays, November 19 – January 28
⏰ 3:45–5:30 PM | Grades 3–5

We knew our Cooke community was amazing, but WOW!
$21,789 raised. 170 Cardinals participated. 145% of our goal!
Every donation and every family who helped spread the word made a difference. These funds will go right back into making Cooke an even better place for our students and staff!
A huge congratulations to our top student fundraisers and the six classrooms that earned a Fusco’s Water Ice Party!
And, of course, we CANNOT WAIT to celebrate with the entire school when we get to SLIME MRS. JACOBS AND MRS. GEARHEART!!!!
Thank you, Cooke families! You showed up for our school in a big way, and we couldn’t be more grateful or more proud of what we accomplished together!
