Robotics
Club
As a part of the First Lego League, this club guides youth through STEM learning and exploration. The students work together to apply what they learn by programming robots to perform missions on the league provided mat in a competition setting. The focus is on the fundamentals of engineering as students explore real world problems, learn to design a robot and code. Best of all, Robotics requires teamwork and friendships that last all through middle school form.

Patriot
Pals
The Patriot Pals Program is usually focused on 1) a mentoring component 2) incentives 3) Monthly Focus Session 4) Service Project 5) Field Trip Component. This year, we are limited in terms of volunteer usage. Instead, I would like the Patriot Pals Program to focus on the Monthly Focus Session Component with a series of Student Workshops for Pals related to 'Tools for Success' (Organizational Skills, Online Peer Relations, Social Emotional Health, Maximizing Notetaking Skills, Tech Tools for Student Success, etc.) We will rely on staff members initially and will expand to community volunteers as we begin to loosen our volunteer standards during reopening.
