Applications Due Monday, Sept. 16

Thanks to all of those who came to our First Lego League informational meeting last night. The kids that attended all had great questions. It's great seeing our parents and families support their kids' desire to be a part of this. I hope everyone got the information they needed.

If your student hasn't turned in his/her application, get them in by Monday before the office closes. The coaching team is meeting Monday evening to figure out our team membership. Notifications should go out on Tuesday. It's a tight turnaround because we will start meeting the week of Sept. 23rd. We'll need all 11 weeks of meetings to get ready for the December tournament.

Below are the videos I showed last night.

This one explains what the First organization is.


This one shows a team competing in the robot game at last year's State competition.


Even though this is not how the innovation project is presented in competition, I'm including this animated version of a project done last year. And because C.A.T.S.S!
