Code Coast Consulting, a locally owned and veteran-owned business based in St. Augustine, recently announced the opening of its sixth Code Ninjas franchise in Northeast Florida. The newest center, Code Ninjas San Pablo, will provide children with hands-on opportunities to learn coding, robotics and advanced technology skills in a fun, engaging environment.
With this expansion, most families across Northeast Florida now have a Code Ninjas location within a 15-minute drive, supporting thousands of children each year as they build the technology skills needed for the future.
As the region’s economy continues to grow its innovation and technology base, Code Coast Consulting views youth STEM education as a key driver of workforce development, preparing the next generation of engineers, programmers, entrepreneurs and problem-solvers.
Code Ninjas also partners with the local education community, working with more than 40 public schools to provide unique learning opportunities. The organization supports homeschool and private school families through computer science programs aligned with CSTA standards and is an approved Step Up provider for homeschool students.
Code Ninjas San Pablo will offer a full range of programs, including:
“Our mission has always been to empower kids with the skills they need to thrive in a technology-driven future,” said Ryan Clark, CEO of Code Coast Consulting. “With the opening of Code Ninjas San Pablo, we’re excited to bring even more opportunities for kids in Northeast Florida to build confidence, creativity and real-world technology skills.”
“As a veteran-owned business, we’re proud to continue serving our community by preparing the next generation for success,” Clark added. “These programs are about more than coding, they are about building the future workforce that will power Northeast Florida’s growing innovation economy.”
A grand opening celebration will be held from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 14, at Code Ninjas San Pablo, 1650 San Pablo Road South, Jacksonville.
The grand opening will include center tours, interactive coding and robotics demos, family activities and special enrollment offers.
