Each CS First club is based on a real-world theme and offers about 10 hours worth of lessons and activities. The different club themes aim to attract and engage students of varying backgrounds and interests. All materials are targeted at students in 4th - 8th grades (or between the ages of 9 - 14) and are free and easy to use.

You don't need computer science experience to host a CS First club. All you need is access to a location, an available computer for each participant, and a group of students.
Start a CS First ClubTo reach as many students as possible, CS First needs help from volunteers like you! You don't need prior computer science knowledge or education training to get involved — the only requirement is enthusiasm to help young people learn and explore.

Many CS First clubs get their start when parent and community advocates raise awareness by making phone calls or emailing school leaders. Make a difference in your community by spreading the word!
