Last week during PSA, students successfully completed an ABii robot build, a curriculum partially funded by the support of HTCincsc. Levata Coleman, the Program Manager of Van Robotics, which created the ABii robotic educational program, visited our classroom and had this to say about our amazing students:

"I wanted to share how impressed I am with the students participating in Plantersville Summer Academy. Watching them successfully complete the ABii robot build was inspiring, and their enthusiasm, teamwork, and perseverance were remarkable. Thank you for your partnership and commitment to providing meaningful STEM opportunities for your students."

Thank you for joining us and thank you HTCincsc for your generous support!
