Students in grades 3-8 who are interested may attend a spring robotics tournament called a Robot Track Meet on April 11 in Saco, ME, for a fee. For more information about this event, visit robottrackmeets.org & smgearbots.org.
Running a successful technology program depends on parent involvement. All students in the program must have at least one actively involved parent. Please indicate your volunteer preference(s) on the registration form. Let us know if you have a talent you wish to share.
