A page that is live the same day
Your child writes the words, lays out the page, and opens it in a browser before they go home. Then they make it work on a phone.

28 September – 13 December 2026
Ten sessions, one hour a week. We skip Thanksgiving week.
The semester
$445
Second Path at the same time, $375. Brothers and sisters get 5% off both.
Ages 7–15 · ten students to a room · 73 Central Street, Wellesley
Three semesters a year: Fall, Winter and Spring. You pay for the semester you’re in, and nothing renews on its own.
The two levels
Your child starts where they are and moves when they’re ready. Nobody repeats a year, and nobody’s stuck in a class that has run out of things to teach them.
Kids build their first real web page. They write the text, lay it out, and see it working in a browser the same day. No experience needed.
Tuesdays, 3:00–4:00 pm · running this Fall
For kids who have built a page before. They add styling, link several pages together, and make the whole site work on a phone.
Mondays, 4:00–5:00 pm · running this Fall
Every level runs this Fall on a set day. Not sure which one fits? Book a free evaluation and we’ll place your child.
What school doesn’t have time for
School teaches the concepts. We teach your child how to use them.
A classroom has thirty children and a syllabus to finish. We have ten and an afternoon. So your child builds the thing, breaks it, fixes it, and explains what they did.
One question a session
AI can write the code. It can’t decide what to build, or tell you when the answer is wrong. That’s the part we teach.
Every session opens with one thinking question on the board. Make it smaller. Where have I seen this before? Would a robot understand this? It takes two minutes, and it’s the habit that outlasts the subject.
Your child can use AI after they have tried it themselves and can tell us what they tried. Anything AI helped with, they have to explain. Copy and paste with no explanation isn’t finished work.
Who teaches your child
Our instructors are college graduates with computer science backgrounds. They studied this. So when your child asks the question that isn’t in the lesson plan, they get a real answer.
Thinking about the Belt Program instead?
| Web Design Path | Belt Program | |
| Time | 1 hour a week | 2 hours, plus 2 on a Saturday |
| Shape | One topic, one semester | Ten belts, ten months each |
| What comes home | What they built | Monthly report, portfolio, transcript |
| Saturday STEAM Study Lab | None | Included, two hours a month |
| Price | $445 a semester | $425 a month |
Ten hours a semester at $445 works out at $44.50 an hour. A Belt is ten hours a month (eight in class plus a two-hour Study Lab) at $425, which is $42.50 an hour. The Belt costs less per hour, and it’s the only one that’s written down.
Questions parents ask
My child has never done this. Which level?
Level 101. It says no experience needed and it means it. The only thing your child needs is to be able to read and type. Not sure? Book a free evaluation and we’ll place them.
How does my child move up a level?
When the instructor thinks they are ready, and not before. There’s no test and nothing is marked. We don’t grade. No scores, no pass, no fail.
What happens on a day off school?
We run. A single day off school isn’t a day off Path. We skip Thanksgiving week, and we are closed 24 December to 7 January.
Can my child take two Paths at once?
Yes, if the times don’t clash. The second one is $375. Call the campus on 781-291-3131 and we’ll check the schedule with you.
Does it carry on after December?
There are three semesters: Fall, Winter and Spring. Nothing renews on its own. Every family chooses again each semester.
Still deciding?
Book a free evaluation. Forty-five minutes, no obligation, and your child leaves knowing which level fits.
