FieldCore families have access to the perfect summer balance of STEM-focused, virtual edu-tainment in the Meaningful Software Innovation program. Over the years, campers have gained serious life skills and hands-on experience within a variety of software languages by participating in these powerfully fun and effective virtual STEM programs.

Campers are engaged and immersed for 10 to 20 hours in one- or two-week-long programs. They learn to code and channel their interests and passions into a fun portfolio of STEM accomplishments that they can refer back to as they continue on their personal and academic journey!
