THE ROBOTS HAVE ARRIVED!
The newest generation of robots from VEX Systems have landed in the Gloucester High School Engineering Department and are being unpacked now! GEF received major grants from Applied Materials Foundation, the Dusky Fund and Joe and Maggie Rosa to upgrade the school's robotics systems and equipment, and when school starts in September, engineering students will be working with state-of-the-art robots! Many thanks to GHS senior Austin Monell (shown in photo at right), for working throughout most of this school year to get the orders for the new equipment and hundreds of new components placed and shipped to the school.
We are a little less than a week away from the 2019 Power of Play! We hope to see you at the Gloucester High School Field House, 11 am - 2 pm, for this popular Gloucester event. Admission is $5 per family, payable at the door. Many thanks to Cape Ann Savings Bank and Cape Ann Trust & Financial Services Department for their sponsorship and for staffing the concession stand at the event!
