• Beep-Beep! Robtocis Fun in Jr. High

  Funded Mar 20, 2023

  Thank you for your generous donations to our robotics classroom. As the pictures show, the students have already put together the solar robot kits in class. They were upset they didn't work At first but hearing their conversations and encouragement for problem-solving was amazing. The students tinkered some more and the rollie solar robot rolled away in front of them. Allowing students to work with different kits and materials allows them to take charge of their learning in a more meaningful way. The hands-on learning experience will make a lasting impression on them. What they got to experience in the robotics class, will one day benefit them in future endeavors. Once again, your kindness and donation mean a lot to me and my students.”

• Community Building in Robotics

  Funded Oct 18, 2022

  Thank you for your generous donations to our robotics classroom. During the past few months, students have found the robotics classroom to be a safe place to be themselves and relax. Using LEGO as a medium to help with the stress of middle school, the students have added to the LEGO city in our classroom. They are learning the importance of communication, and problem-solving while learning about city planning, architecture, and engineering. Friendships have been fostered between students and it is pretty remarkable to see the kindness and respect they have for each other. Your donation to this project has helped create lasting friendships and memories.”

• Cultivating Students' Imagination with LEGO Bricks

  Funded Apr 7, 2022

  Thank you for your generous donations to our robotics classroom. Over the few months, students have been using the LEGO Spike Prime sets to build some amazing creations. They have been creating robots with moving parts, turbo cars, marble contraptions, and more. Over and over again, without instructions, the students are working on ideas and problem-solving issues when things don't go the way they planned. It is amazing to see their engineering minds grow and develop. Your kindness and donations play a huge role in their ability to explore the world of engineering and robots. Your donation allows the students to work with materials they might not get the chance to work with. Thank you.”

• Inspiring Innovation , Supporting Creativity With Robotics

  Funded Sep 16, 2020

  Thank you for your generous donations to our CTE classroom. Over the past year, students have been learning about robotics and the automation process. They have been working hard to apply their learning to real-life applications. The soldering kits have taught them to be accurate and to take their time. They only get one chance to do it right. The other materials have helped their creation take shape like the hot glue sticks and stands. As part of the classroom experience, having suitable materials for their builds is essential. Your kindness in supporting education allows these students to explore the world of engineering.”
