VEX IQ Robotics Tournament
This past Saturday, January 11th, our robotics teams competed against other VEX IQ teams from across the area at MPES. We are very proud of their hard work, preparation and teamwork both leading up to Saturday and during the competition. Great job students!
I would like to say thank you to our tournament coordinator, Ms. Lisa Wolf, and to our three robotics coaches--Ms. Davis, Ms. Vencil and Mr. Bailey. Thank you also to the parents, teachers and staff members who volunteered to help with the tournament and came to cheer on our students!
