Six-Week-Long Earn-A-Computer Course at Bellefontaine Recreation Center
About this Event

Earn-A-Computer is a hands-on class that introduces young people ages 8 to 17 to the inner workings and possibilities of computers and the internet — all while getting set to take home a refurbished computer upon successful completion of the course. After completing a consecutive series of six (90-minute) classes digging into everything from online safety to programming and presentation-building, students receive a refurbished computer of their very own.

Students who commit to this series will meet for six Saturday afternoons, beginning each week at 1:30 p.m. (with each class ending at 3 p.m.). The first class meeting is Saturday, September 6, and graduation day (the final class, when students will present what they’ve learned and take their computers home!) will be Saturday, October 11. Students must consistently attend the classes to earn their computer.

This particular series takes place at Bellefontaine Recreation Center, located in Soulard at 9669 Bellefontaine Road, St. Louis, MO 63137. A parent/guardian must attend the first 10 minutes of the first of the six classes. We also limit each family to two registrants per session, and students must be between the ages of 8 to 17.

The operating system we install is Linux Mint OS (not Windows or Mac OS).
