Awesome day at the Licking Valley Vex Robotics Competition Qualifier! Two of our bots made it into the Round of 16 out of 60 teams. Our skills rankings have two bots tied for the top 20 spot out of all MS Teams in OH. So proud of these students and their hard work. #43050pog

#ThoughtForTheDay Remember when we sat in the interview & said all of the right things? All kids can learn! I want to make a difference for kids. Every student. Every day. Whatever it Takes. Still feel the same way? Have the same fire? If not, go back & find it...via #Culturize
