X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p>The Richard Montgomery High School robotic
 s team\, Rocket Robotics\, is excited to offer a free\, 6-week coding cour
 se for middle school students\, designed to introduce beginners to the fun
 damentals of programming and spark interest in programming and robotics. T
 his hands-on course will cover the fundamentals of coding using one of the
  most popular programming languages\, Python. Students will receive guided
  instruction over the 6-session course which will help them understand key
  concepts (such as basic Python syntax\, working with and manipulating dat
 a\, control structures like loops and if statements\, and creating reusabl
 e methods) and prepare them to further advance their coding skills.</p>\n<
 p>Experienced high school mentors will guide the participants\, providing 
 personalized support and encouragement. With each session building on the 
 last\, students will not only gain a solid foundation in Python programmin
 g that they can apply in robotics and other coding projects\, but also the
  confidence to explore further in the world of technology and robotics. Wh
 ether you're new to coding or looking to strengthen your skills\, this cou
 rse will provide a supportive and engaging environment to get started with
  Python.</p>\n<p><strong>Students are requested to bring their own laptop 
 computers if possible.</strong> If they cannot\, a <span style="text-decor
