I wish they had this when I was growing up….
We learned about PCS through a friend earlier this year. My husband, an engineer himself, had the opportunity to visit one of the open houses and his reaction was “I wish they had this when I was growing up”…. Physics and engineering concepts explained and taught in such a simple and fun loving environment.
So, obviously our son had to be a part of this wonderful program but we realized the value of it when, usually a reserved child, could not keep his excitement down when he programmed for the first time at PCS. He said “it was so much fun, but not difficult to do”. He could not believe how a 7 year old like him could make something move and follow directions!
This is a cohesive program that beautifully combines mathematics, physics and engineering in a well developed curriculum that regular schools cannot provide! Most importantly, the students have the opportunity to learn, innovate, build and are rewarded (the pyramid system) at their own pace.
We are very happy with the program and have recommended to families that are now part of the PCS program.
We just say, love legos? Come on board, this is real stuff, serious building and so much fun!
