The world's largest coding education franchise for kids, Code Ninjas, is here at children school! Students can join Code Senseis on epic coding adventures right after school. This program, designed by Victor, the owner of Code Ninjas, in partnership with BASE Director Nayagara Viera, meets the growing demand for STEM and coding enrichment in our schools.

With coding and STEM voted as the most desired after-school topics, we’re thrilled to bring Code Ninjas to our community!

Our program accepts all grades between K-5. Students will be taught in separate classrooms at the same time (perfect for siblings).

The offerings break down into three components: STEAM Makerspace, Lego Robotics, and Coding.

STEAM Makerspace: Kids tackle different engineering challenges every 3-4 weeks. Challenges include, but are not limited to, building egg-parachutes, launching paper rockets, coding drones/robots, and even exploring 3D printing!

Lego Robotics: Kids build and code their own robots using innovative Lego Robotics curriculum.

Coding: Kids learn coding through making games in ScratchJR (K-1), Scratch (2), Roblox/Minecraft (3-5).

Our program is a full-year program, but in case of late registrations we are offering two sections:

• Spring Section: January–June (22 sessions)

Per-Section Enrollment

• Spring Section: $1,332

• Enrollment deadline until January 26. Register early to secure your spot before all seats are filled!

Super Wednesday Day Camps – $150 per day

On Super Wednesdays, regular classes will pause for Code Ninjas Early Release Camps from 11:30 AM to 4:30 PM at Claypit, Happy Hollow, and Loker.

These camps are packed with fun, hands-on activities that may include Roblox Studios, Minecraft Modding, and other exciting STEM challenges. Open to all students in grades K–5—just add them to your registration to reserve your spot.

4th & 5th Graders

Social Emotional Intelligence & Leadership

PROGRAM DESCRIPTION:

In a world shaped by AI, automation, and constant change, research consistently shows that EQ, not IQ, is the strongest predictor of long-term success.

Why Social Emotional Intelligence?

• EQ is about understanding and managing your own internal world.
  “What’s happening inside me, and how do I handle it?”

• Social Intelligence is the ability to understand and navigate the world of other people.
  “What’s happening between us, and how do I respond?”

• Social-Emotional Intelligence is the integration of both Emotional Intelligence and Social Intelligence.
  It is the full skill set children need to thrive at home, at school, and in life.
  
  Emotional Intelligence = Me
  Social Intelligence = Others
  Social-Emotional Intelligence = Me + Others + How We Move Through the World Together

In this Social Emotional Intelligence & Leadership Lab Workshop Series, we support your child to stay focused, navigate challenges, build strong friendships, and make thoughtful decisions.

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT:
Kids get to expand their comfort zone in the realm of learning. They receive tools grounded in neuroscience to navigate setbacks, reflect, adjust, and continue toward their goals. They will learn how their brain works and how to train their brain to work for them.

PROGRAM HIGHLIGHTS

Session Goal-Setting & Weekly Accountability Check-Ins. Each child chooses a personal goal at the start of the session: something meaningful, realistic, and connected to who they want to become.

Every week, we do a structured goal check-in, teaching:

• Accountability (Did I follow through?)

• Responsibility (What choices did I make?)

• Integrity (Did my actions match my words?)

• Problem-solving (What got in the way? How do I move forward next time?)
  
  

This is one of the most powerful parts of the program: learning how to keep going when things get hard and stay committed.

YOU ARE A PART OF THE PROGRAM!
We are a firm believer that nothing stays in the classroom.
You’ll receive a clear summary via email of:

• What your child learned

• Ways to support at home

• Invitations/practices for the week

This keeps you fully in the loop and helps the learning extend into real life.

Every lesson is designed to help your child practice EQ skills in life - inside and outside of school. Kids learn that SEL isn’t something they “do”. It’s something they live.

Medication Protocol

Parents are strongly encouraged to schedule all prescription and over-the-counter medications to be administered at home or by the school nurse during regular school hours. However, in emergency or unavoidable situations, prescription medication can be administered at BASE if:

• The parent's signature is on the required medication forms, and

• The medication is provided in its original bottle.

• Please follow the steps below.

Prescription and over-the-counter medications may also be administered if:

1. A pediatrician signs the WSCP Medication Administration Order Form-For Providers, allowing BASE staff at Wayland School Community Programs to give non-prescription medications (e.g., Tylenol, cough suppressant) for the specified school year.

2. Please ensure the WSCP Medication Permission Form is signed and returned to the program to authorize administration.

Any leftover medication will be returned to the parent or disposed of as per program policy.

Staff members carefully measure and administer the medication, documenting its dosage and time.

The WSCP nurse will create an Individualized Health Care Plan (IHCP) for students who take regular or emergency medications as needed.
