Register for Afterschool Programs
We have two great afterschool programs for the 2026/2027 school year:
Artemis ROADS III (NESSP/NASA):
The ROADS (Rover Observation and Discoveries in Space) engages students in hands-on STEM through mission-based learning. Held one day a week, September 2026 through May 2027, this program helps challenge students to think creatively and build teamwork skills while they build, explore, and execute a NASA mission.
10 seats available
Wednesday (3:30 to 5:00)
3rd - 8th graders welcome
Code Girls is a hands-on after-school program where girls in 4th–8th grade explore coding, technology, and creative problem-solving in a fun, supportive environment. Through engaging projects and challenges, students build real-world tech skills, grow their confidence, and discover what they can create when they bring their ideas to life.
Code Girls meets Tuesdays from 3:30–5:00 PM, September through May, at HERO’s STEAM Center.
Girls Grades 4- 8
After School Programs
Hero's STEAM has offered the Code Girls United Program (for girls grades 4 – 8) for 5 years now and plans to continue serving the program with each new academic year. The previous 4 years produced winning teams that received scholarships for higher learning. This years’ 5th challenge will be held on April 25th at the STEAM Center.
For three years now, Hero’s served the Northwest Earth and Space Sciences Pathways (NESSP) program to students grades 3 – 8. This is a NASA funded STEM program managed by Central Washington University (CWU). The future of this program is tenuous due to cuts of federal funding for NASA's Outreach and Education budgets. In 2026, NESSP and MSU Bozeman hosted a HUB challenge for our region on April 21st. T
