I LOVE CodeHS and all of the options it has for classes. I have students that not only complete the required course that I teach, but also have me sign them up for courses of interest to them that they complete FOR FUN!

Janet Shelbourne

Teacher, Valentine High School

“

The kids absolutely love it. I love the fact that these activities have no ceiling and the students can do some amazing things. This is one of the most exciting things of my career so far. I have absolutely loved it.

Craig Rasmussen

Teacher, Riverside School

“

Last year, my students LOVED the VEX robots. It was very cool to see how fast they adapted to building and coding. 4th grade science learns about energy & circuits. The Robot Arm was a perfect lesson to have a hands on experience with this.

Allison St. Louis

Teacher, Whittier Elementary

“

85% of students got 4 ands 5s since we switch to CodeHS for AP CSP. 75% passing CSA with CodeHS Java

Christopher Schmitz

Teacher, Erie High School

“

"is incredibly user friendly for both me and my students" “is extremely well written - I’m as happy as can be!”

Jon DelVecchio

Teacher, Henry V Burger Junior High School

“

I really appreciate all that you guys do. I'm so glad the district listened to us when we recommended CodeHS, because seriously, your customer service is the best I've found so far. Thanks again!

Rebekah Bailey

Teacher, Hall High School

“

Although I've supplemented with the free version of CodeHS in the past, it felt like a leap of faith to pay for the full version. But after struggling with time last year and feeling like I owed my students more, I pulled the trigger on this at the end of the summer. The four webinars you all offered were super helpful and I was able to squeeze enough time between helping all my other teachers to orient myself pretty well to the program.

Stefan Eady

Teacher & Asst. Head of School, Darlington School

“

I was shocked at how fast they responded and how quickly they were able to get me helped. I plan on getting the pro version but am waiting on district purchasing to do that and therefor am on the free version but I was still able to helped quickly and effectively. I'm so glad I switched over from Code.org!

Trent Lermon

Computer Science Teacher, Georgetown Isd

“

Thank you so much for meeting with us this morning, it was extremely helpful to see all the updates. I also appreciate that CodeHS has listened to teachers and made so many great updates.

Carol Birnbaum

Computer Science Teacher, Blue Valley West High

“

Using CodeHS with the PRO features to teach Python 3 with Tracy to my students was wonderful. Synching the gradebook with Google Classroom shaved hours off my work time. I made stickers for each of the “badges” and students couldn’t wait to master each skill so they could display their badges on their iPad cases.

Diana Marcus

Computer Science Teacher, Marshall Simonds Middle

“

I got some good news yesterday - One of my coding club seniors graduated last week and took a GMetrix python certification test yesterday. He passed!!! He took the GMetrix course, but said it wouldn’t have been possible without our Thursday afternoon CodeHS sessions.

Tricia Murphy

Computer Science Teacher, Blue Hills Regional Vocational Technical

“

We are good. All three of my students who took the exam passed. We are SOOOO excited. Huge win for our school. This was the first year we taught this class - Python with Arduino- and took the CodeHS Python certification.

Elizabeth White

Computer Science Teacher, Hawkins Middle

“

It’s been amazing working with CodeHS for all of these years. Your work continues to impact students’ lives and interest in computer science. Thank you all for creating such a usable platform to support teachers and students.

Crystal Wong

Computer Science Teacher, John C. Kimball High

“

The high-quality resources available through CodeHS allow me to spend 90% of my time working with individual students or small groups, for a more personalized learning experience. The autograding allows me to see my students’ needs in real time, and to respond to those needs.

Lisa Giacalone

Teacher, Simi Valley High

“

I didn’t know CodeHS had implemented Scratch into the Sandbox options.
I didn’t know CodeHS had implemented Scratch into the Sandbox options. Took a look at it this morning and that’s a great piece of integration! Look forward to utilizing it that way from here on out.

Alex Glamyan

Engineer, Lee County, Florida

“

I've found the (assignment beta) collab mode extremely useful for differentiation as well - I can easily add starter code or comments to individual students without having to make a whole new assignment, which has been a huge help. Thanks again!

Steve Cottington

Teacher, YES Prep - East End

“

The support team is awesome, quick to respond, and has great answers. The autograder is invaluable. The videos are high quality and I appreciate the option to use the slides instead. I like that one of the examples usually matches the video. The exercises are challenging but not too challenging. I use the solution to the exercises all the time because we often get stuck on what the autograder wants.

Kim Hansen

Computer Science Teacher, Skyview High School

“

AI implementation of plagiarism - still learning, but is very helpful this year. Tech support is always amazing as well!

Cindy Moshman-Southworth

PATCHOGUE-MEDFORD High School

“

I thank you so much for all you have done for me and my class. My students received several certifications thanks to your site.. Thanks for giving my kids a chance and allowing them to excel.

Charleston Teacher

“

I’m being 100% honest when I say both learning and teaching were made tremendously easier thanks to CodeHS, so I’m happy our FTCE class is using it and I hope those who go on to teach will implement it in their classes as well.

Alex Glamyan

Florida Arts Teacher turned software engineer

“

loving the new Mix/Match Modules with my 6th graders

Pam Koleszar

Boonville Middle School

“

It's the best (AP CSP) preparatory set of questions out there…Without CodeHS, I would not be able to average as high of scores on the AP Exam as I did in my first year as a CompSci teacher. It is extremely important that our district knows this - it is an ESSENTIAL tool and I would be lost without it.

Phil Cerami

Computer Science Teacher, Souderton High School

“

The program has been improving each year and the addition of Cybersecurity makes CodeHS a cut above the rest!

Rik Fujioka

Computer Science Teacher, Murrieta Mesa High

“

**I feel so much better about the Java content I need to teach.** I felt like the instructors cared and worked well with us. I loved the practice it provided, and the ranking scale every week.

Melissa Johnson

Computer Science Teacher, Mishawaka High School

“

It was helpful to be a student in a course and see how my own students feel in a CodeHS class. I LOVE CodeHS so much and it has really, really helped me so much as a teacher. It **saves me so much time and the activities and videos are very engaging** and helpful for my students. Thank you again!

Lauren Harlan

Computer Science Teacher, Valparaiso High School

“

...my students can't get enough from it. They love creating and do coding to build a program. My students are in the program every minute of it and worse part is, they don't want to learn other subject, they just asked about when do we do coding.

Sia Niupulusu

Elementary Teacher, Peter Coleman Elementary School

“

Great team! They were so quick to answer questions and were so friendly and knowledgeable. I'm so excited to use these lessons!

Becky Buckley

Teacher, Scera Park School

“

Very well structured and amazing team that is so responsive and helpful. I made the right choice in choosing CodeHS!

Brandon Garcia

Teacher, The Noble Academy

“

The provided lesson plans (are) excellent. Not only did they help walk you through the lessons with minute by minute pacing guides, they provide you with materials to help accommodate all students’ needs, from students with accommodations to advanced learners to non-english speaking students.

Therese Willecke

Teacher, Woodstock CUSD 200

“

Kudos to the creator of the p5.JS curriculum. It is stellar. ... In addition, while only just completing Unit 2 of the Web design course, the pacing and exercises, and quizzes, and slides, and everything is just so impressive. Particularly I like how the exercises pertain to the audience- diary, daily schedule, personal interests etc. My (all girls) students LOVE coding, and these are students who are supposed to HATE coding. Thank you for helping me make coding fun and accessible

Erik Magness

Teacher, Villa Maria Academy High School

“

I'm just coming here to say THANK YOU for including an AI to help with grading! How delightful when I tried that out for the first time today. Kudos and thank you for giving me some time back in my day.

Dee Chapman

Teacher, The Griffin School

“

I used the Academic Integrity Center all the time when it came out. It was really helpful...Kudos to CodeHS for coming out with these analytics it was so helpful.

Zach Olson

Computer Science Teacher, Dallas ISD

“

My students scored really well on the AP CSA exam last spring (100% scored 3 or above!!! Awesome!) and much thanks goes to codeHS for all of the practice they got on your platform.

Jessica Klauzer-Zimmerman

Computer Science Teacher, Boulder High School

“

I wouldn't have made it without CodeHS...I love everything about CodeHS. Teaching with CodeHS is what teaching should look like.

Rhonda Howard

Admin/ Teacher, Dallas ISD

“

First off I would like to say thank you. I had 99 students take the AP CSP exam and my pass rate was 79%, up from 77% the previous school year. The breakdown of the multiple choice questions showed my students were above both the state and global averages. A clear indication that your curriculum is truly doing the job. Thank you!!

Sean Comadena

Computer Science Teacher, Redlands Senior High

“

CodeHS provides excellent teaching and grading tools. Also, CodeHS has been awesome to work with as the company and support provided me the opportunity to teach different subjects in the same class using Google Classroom, YouTube and the CodeHS Virtual platform.

Mark Vaughn

Computer Science Teacher, Union County High School

“

The platform is designed to suit any and every teacher's needs, the tools are incredible, it is designed for teacher and student success. I was grateful to have access as a teacher.

Rhonda Howard

Admin, Dallas Isd

“

I used to say "technology is not my thing" because it was hard for me. This course helped me realize that I can still learn hard things and that I can grow and learn with the changing technology available to us as teachers. I think the knowledge that I gained while completing this course will help me become a better teacher for my students.

Miranda Dill

Lee County

“

That [Fundamentals of Cybersecurity] looks like a great course. I previously worked for a cybersecurity consulting firm and I appreciate the course's coverage of essential concepts such as the CIA triad and not just delving into 'how to be a hacker' material, which is so common (and off the mark).

Bob Andersen

Admin, Higher Ground Academy

“

I am really enjoying the [AI] bootcamp! . . .I have also already been using many of the things I learned and implemented them in my AP CS Principles class!

Mason Atha

Teacher, North Central High School

“

By the way, the [IN AI Bootcamp] course has been great. I have taken advantage of several items I have learned already savings me hours of work. Plus I already seen where I will be using several of these items in my classes next year.

Chris Woodward

Computer Science Teacher, West Lafayette Jr/Sr High School

“

My concern was handled quickly and professionally. They understood my question, offered a short term fix, and offered to forward it to the curriculum team to make a change for next year. They asked if I had more questions or concerns. Basically everything I could want in an interaction. Thanks!

George Lancaster

Ann Arbor Public Schools, Community High School

“

I am hearing good things about the program Nice work! Thank you for all you do!

Gaylin Morris

FTCE Charlotte Admin, Charlotte County Public Schools

“

Thank you for sharing all this with me! I received a lot of positive feedback from all the teachers regarding the training. I am grateful that you took the initiative to set up additional teachers with the Pro Trails.

Jefferson County Admin

...it's super neat that I got to be on a Zoom call...with one of the founders because I was just talking about some features I'd like to see on the platform and, h
