My Project

We are starting multiple Robotics Teams at Tottenville High School. My diverse group of students will be competing in an elite international Robotics Competition called First Tech Challenge.

Robotics Education is the future and we are meeting that challenge head-on.

My students will spend months and countless hours working in school, after school, and on weekends in order to create highly complex robots. These supplies(wagons, tool chests, etc...) will enable us to travel to competitions in other boroughs. We need mobile tool sets so that we can build, improve, and fix issues on site during our competitions.

Mr. Lavan Tottenville High School Grades 9-12

Celebrate Black teachers and kids! This project supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of students are Black.
