Don’t see a time that works? Tell us when you can come and we will let you know when a slot opens.
There is a particular moment in this club that never gets old: a student sends a parent a link, the parent opens it on their own phone, and the thing the student made is simply there, on the internet, working. Nothing else we teach produces quite that reaction.
Getting there means meeting the web honestly — structure, style and behavior as three separate concerns, and a browser that will do exactly what you wrote rather than what you meant.
Tracks
Students enter at the level that matches their experience and move up as they are ready.
- Introduction — HTML structure, text, links, images
- Intermediate — CSS layout, color, type, and making it work on a phone
- Advanced — JavaScript behavior, forms, and publishing to a real domain
What students actually learn
- HTML and the idea that structure and appearance are different things
- CSS layout, and why a page that looks right on a laptop can fall apart on a phone
- JavaScript for behavior — making something respond rather than just sit there
- Accessibility basics: alt text, contrast, and building for people who browse differently
- Publishing, and the discipline of shipping something with your name on it
A brief, as students receive it
Build a site about something you actually know. It has to work on a phone and a laptop, every image needs alt text, and a stranger has to be able to find the one most important thing on it within five seconds.
We give the requirements, not the steps. Working out how is the lesson — and the reason students can explain what they built when they get home.
The question parents actually ask
“Can’t they just use a website builder?”
They can, and plenty of adults do. The difference is that a builder hides the machinery; this club opens it. A student who understands structure, style and behavior as separate things can fix a site rather than only rearrange one.
Where it leads
Students who want to go deeper on the language side move into Python, where algorithms and contest preparation open up.
Questions
Will their site actually be public?
At the advanced level, yes — published to a real URL. Earlier tracks work locally, and publishing is always your decision.
Is this useful for college applications?
It is one of the two clubs that produces something a stranger can look at. A working site with your name on it still counts years later.
When do clubs run?
Clubs run September 2026 to June 2027, one hour a week. This club runs Mondays, 4:30–5:30 pm, at 73 Central Street, Wellesley. It starts Monday 21 September and runs to 30 June 2027.
What does it cost?
$199 a month, one hour a week, one topic. You pay for ten months, September to June — July and August are not billed, because clubs do not run then. Taking a second club at the same time? $180 a month for each extra one. Brothers and sisters get 5% off, and that comes off both prices. Materials are included. Stop any time with 30 days’ notice — no term to see out, no penalty, no phone call you have to win. Nothing renews on its own in September; every family chooses again each year.
How is a club different from the Belt Program?
A club is one hour a week, in a larger group, focused on one topic. The Belt Program is two hours a week across a ten-month year, in a group of about six, with a written progress report every month and a capstone project. AI Studio is one hour a week, self-paced, with the work tuned to your child by their instructor. Plenty of students do more than one.
What if we need to miss a week?
Tell us in advance and we will place your child in another group that week where the schedule allows. We run on school holidays too — a day off school is not a day off club. We are closed 24 December to 7 January.
Can we stop?
Yes. Stop any time with 30 days’ notice — no term to see out, no penalty, no phone call you have to win. Email wellesley107@icodeschool.com, or the Managing Director, Soundarya Ganesh, at soundarya.ganesh@icodeschool.com.
