The start of a new school year is always filled with excitement, new possibilities, and the promise of growth. At TechBlazers, we are thrilled to welcome both our returning students and those joining us for the first time. Our commitment to providing a stimulating, diverse, and enriching educational experience remains stronger than ever, and we are eager to embark on another successful academic journey with you.
This year, we’ve curated an expansive range of programs designed to meet the varying interests and skill levels of our students. Whether your child is an aspiring coder, a budding designer, or an academically curious learner, TechBlazers has something for everyone. Let’s dive into some of the exciting courses and opportunities awaiting your child this school year.
Pioneering Technology and Coding Courses
In today’s fast-paced digital world, equipping students with technology skills is essential. Our tech courses this year are more comprehensive than ever before. We’re offering Robotics Levels 1-8 and RoboSprout Levels 1-6 for our younger students who are interested in robotics. For those looking to engage in competitive robotics, we’ve expanded our curriculum to include VEX IQ and VEX courses, offering hands-on learning and preparation for robotics competitions.
If coding is where your child’s passion lies, we offer an array of programs tailored to different levels of expertise. From beginner-friendly Scratch Levels 1-6 to more advanced languages like Python (Levels 1-2) and Java, students can enhance their coding skills in a structured environment. Additionally, for those inclined towards game development, our new Unity and Gaming Design: Code Cup course provides the perfect introduction to creating interactive games and animations.
Fostering Design and Creativity
Our tech program isn’t just about coding and robotics. At TechBlazers, we believe in nurturing creativity alongside technical skills. That’s why we’re offering 3D Design Levels 1-3 for our visually creative students. This program lays the foundation for future careers in architecture, product design, and digital arts, while also giving students hands-on experience with 3D modeling and design tools. Whether it’s designing virtual worlds or creating tangible objects through 3D printing, our students have the tools and guidance to unleash their creativity.
Expanding Academic Studies for Young Learners
Recognizing the importance of foundational education, we are excited to introduce academic studies for ages 4-8, starting this September. These programs offer a comprehensive approach to core subjects like math, English writing, English reading, and French. These 3-hour weekend classes are designed to foster essential skills while giving parents the peace of mind that their child is building a strong academic foundation. Whether your child is just beginning to read or is advancing their math skills, these courses are both engaging and enriching.
For older students, our language program continues to flourish, offering French (A1-A2) for beginners, and an advanced English program covering reading and writing courses (Levels 1-3). Our math courses (Levels 1-3) are tailored to sharpen analytical and problem-solving abilities, ensuring students are well-prepared for academic challenges ahead.
Advanced Placement (AP) Courses for High Achievers
For students seeking a challenge beyond the typical school curriculum, we’re proud to offer Advanced Placement (AP) courses. These classes are designed to give students a head start on college-level academics, allowing them to explore more advanced topics while earning credits that will benefit them in their higher education pursuits. Our AP courses help bridge the gap between high school and college, ensuring students are well-prepared for the academic demands of the future.
Personalized Learning with Student Plans
At TechBlazers, we understand that each student is unique. To better meet the individual needs of our students, we’ve introduced Personalized Student Plans. These plans are designed to customize the learning experience based on each student’s strengths, weaknesses, and goals. Whether your child needs extra support in a particular subject or is looking to accelerate their learning in another, our personalized approach ensures that they receive the attention and guidance they need to thrive.
Extracurricular Activities and Competitions
Learning extends far beyond the classroom. This year, we’re excited to continue offering our popular robotics club classes for junior and intermediate levels. These clubs provide an opportunity for students to apply what they’ve learned in a collaborative, hands-on environment. Additionally, for our competitive students, we’re adding a Robotics competition season to our extracurricular calendar. Over the past five years, TechBlazers has achieved excellent results in VEX competitions, and this year, we’re expanding our team sizes to reach new heights in performance.
Special Focus on Young Learners
This year, we’re placing a strong emphasis on our youngest students, focusing on ages 4-8. We aim to foster a love for learning at an early age, building the foundation for future academic and personal success. Through our engaging curriculum and expert teaching staff, we’re committed to helping young learners explore their curiosity, develop essential skills, and set the stage for lifelong achievement.

Our curriculum continues to evolve to meet the changing needs of our students and the world they will help shape.
