Sammamish Chamber CEO Julie Honn talks with Rukaiya Dahodwala, owner of Code Ninjas Sammamish, about bringing STEM and coding education to local kids ages 5-14 through a self-paced, belt-based curriculum, robotics, AI, and FIRST LEGO League teams.

Code Ninjas is a STEM hub serving Sammamish kids ages 5-14 through coding, robotics, and game design, all built around a safe, encouraging, self-paced learning model.
Code Ninjas offers:

  • After-school coding and academies: Kids progress at their own pace using a belt-based system, moving from visual tools like Scratch to text-based languages like JavaScript and Python.
  • Seasonal and summer camps: Hands-on programs covering topics like LEGO robotics, Minecraft, Roblox, and 3D design.
  • Competitive STEM: Participation in events like the First Lego League
