LOOKING FOR VOLUNTEERS FOR ROBOTICS TOURNAMENT
Dear Patriots,
I am on the hunt again for people to serve as judges for our robotics tournament. This year's event will be on Saturday, February 12th from 8am-3pm. It is kind of a lengthy time commitment, but it is such a cool event to be part of. To be eligible, one would need to complete the judge training on the VEX Robotics website and be willing to stay for the whole time indicated above. The job entails interviewing students about their robots and analyzing/scoring their engineering design notebooks to choose the recipients of some of the awards we give that day. Lunch and snacks are provided!
I am happy to answer any questions people might have, but I will also give the link below to sign up for the event. Thanks for any help you can provide!

Can students ask someone to join them at the dance who is in another grade level than them?
No. All seventh graders should attend the 7th grade dance. All 8th graders should attend the 8th grade dance.
*To attend the dance, students may not have been assigned ISS OR OSS in January.
