iCode Plans New Austin Coding School

The iCode Austin project would bring another hands-on learning option to the North Austin area, where kids can trade passive screen time for coding, robotics and creative technology projects. The brand plans a 2,400-square-foot campus at Rolling Oaks Commercial Park along FM 1325.

There is an important naming distinction: the state filing calls the project “iCode – Austin,” but the company markets this exact address as iCode Round Rock. Its campus page lists the location as coming soon. The proposed school is at 15819 FM 1325, Suite 215, with an Austin mailing address.

What the iCode Austin project includes

A Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation registration outlines a $150,000 interior tenant fit-out. The schedule estimates construction from December 4, 2026, through January 22, 2027. Those dates describe the planned building work, not a confirmed first day of classes.

The October 22 registration identifies RSW Consultants as the design firm and James Wood as the tenant contact. The campus website names Wood Brain STEM, Inc., doing business as iCode Round Rock. Neither source provides a final opening date.

For nearby families, the draw is the type of activity taking shape inside the suite. Rather than a conventional tutoring office, iCode centers its programs on making and testing things with technology.

Coding lessons with a belt system

The Round Rock campus website lists after-school classes, holiday camps and technology clubs. Its curriculum covers coding, robotics and digital design, combining instructor-led lessons with projects that students can work through themselves.

One of the brand’s distinctive features is a progressive belt system. Like the levels in martial arts, belts give students a structured route from introductory concepts toward more advanced skills. The company also emphasizes collaboration, problem-solving and communication alongside technical work.

The campus page additionally promotes AI Studio, an instructor-guided program that uses artificial intelligence to support personalized projects. Specific schedules, age-group availability and enrollment details for the new location will need confirmation as the campus prepares to open.

A Texas-born concept grows across Central Texas

Technology entrepreneur Abid Abedi founded iCode in 2015. The company’s account of its beginnings in Frisco describes a father seeking an after-school environment children would enjoy, with technology serving as a tool for discovery rather than another lecture.

That approach helps explain the mix of learning and play. Students can pursue a concrete project while practicing the patience and teamwork needed to finish it. The brand’s growth has taken that model beyond its North Texas origins.

Its current campus directory already includes South Austin, Bee Cave and Leander locations. The FM 1325 project therefore adds to a regional presence; it is not evidence of iCode’s first-ever Austin-area school.

Rolling Oaks adds another specialized business

TBN Development markets Rolling Oaks as a four-building commercial condominium park with flexible spaces for retail, offices, showrooms and warehouses. The iCode Austin buildout shows how one of those spaces can serve a different audience: families seeking extracurricular learning.

TCM previously covered Tiny Aquatics’ separate Rolling Oaks project. The two filings involve different businesses and suites, but together they show the park developing beyond its original shell buildings.

Austin’s public site-plan record lists the broader Rolling Oak Commercial Park development as approved and released in March 2025. The record places it in Austin’s two-mile extraterritorial jurisdiction, outside the city-limits designation. That development approval does not establish approval of iCode’s interior plans.

For now, the clearest story is a coming-soon coding campus gaining a defined construction scope. Its eventual opening would add a new place for area children to explore technology through hands-on learning.
