# Sign Up

Signing up for our CoderDojo is easy! Each school year, we have 4 separate **5-week long** sessions.

During a session, registered participants (who are called "**Ninjas**") meet once a week in the **Smart Lab**, located in the [South Brunswick Public Library](https://sbpl.info).

Each club meeting is 90 minutes long. The **start time for meetings is released when session signups open**.

## Sign Up Procedure

Signups for **session #1** of the **2021-2022** school year (grades 6-8) are currently open! During this session, Ninjas will learn how to make a Python Discord bot, a fully-functioning website, and an interactive text adventure game. 

Session #1 meets every week on Thursdays, with the first meeting on September 30 and the last on October 28th, as shown below:

| Week Number | Date of Meeting    |
| ----------- | ------------------ |
| Week 1      | September 30, 2021 |
| Week 2      | October 7, 2021    |
| Week 3      | October 14, 2021   |
| Week 4      | October 21, 2021   |
| Week 5      | October 28, 2021   |

This session is **beginner-friendly** but also welcomes advanced Ninjas. 

To sign up for the session, parents need to email <teens@sbpl.info> requesting to enroll their child(ren) in the session.

There are a limited number of spots for this session, so you should signup ASAP if you want to reserve your spot!

{% hint style="info" %}
Signing up for our Dojo session means signing up for the entire 5 weeks. Since we have a limited number of spots, we ask that all accepted members commit to attending the workshops. If you reserved a spot before the first meeting and would like to pull yourself from the program, please do so ASAP.
