A Launch Pad for Success

Welcome to New Code Academy!

Choosing an elementary school is a big decision, especially when you’re considering online learning. At New Code Academy, we’ve designed our elementary program specifically for young learners — with live teaching, hands-on activities, strong classroom communities and support for families.

Our teachers work hard to make online school feel personal and connected. Students learn with classmates, participate in small groups, build relationships with teachers and develop the confidence to become more independent over time.

New Code Academy also offers something still uncommon in elementary schools: computer science in every grade. Students begin building problem-solving, creativity, persistence and technology skills early, with age-appropriate activities that grow with them year after year.

Our elementary program was developed in partnership with Bloomington Public Schools and the University of Minnesota Learning + Technology Collaborative. That work helps us design learning around child development, engagement and the ways young students learn best.

Most importantly, families are part of the team. Our teachers provide the instruction, curriculum and academic support. Families help students build routines, stay organized and grow into confident online learners.

On behalf of our entire elementary school team, I want to extend a warm welcome to you and your family. We look forward to partnering with you and watching your child thrive with us. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out via email or call us at 952-444-1234. Remember, any student in Minnesota is eligible to open enroll at New Code Academy, tuition-free, no matter where you live in the state.

We’re excited to launch your child’s future here.

Warm regards,
Rebecca Brower, Principal
Holly Skadsem, Elementary Program Coordinator
