My dog ate a magnet. Any advice on what to do?
Are you sure your dog ate one magnet and one magnet only?
We aren't even 100% sure he ate the one, but unless he ate the attached piece with it, then no, it would only be the one.
So we are a team with a couple of years of experience (3 to be exact), and want to begin expanding and improving our outreach, sponsorship, and general marketing skills, as we're rather lackluster in that category. Seeing as our season is over for this year, we have plenty of time to work on outreach. Any simple ideas on how to begin doing that? We are going to speak to the middle school robotics class our school has, as well as a group of students visiting from Mexico in the near future, but we don't have much besides that. I know we need to reach out to the stem community, and we also need to find more outreach opportunities outside of our school (we are a k-12 school). Any ideas or suggestions? We're open to anything!
What is the weirdest moment you remember from elementary/middle/high school?
Our first award ever for the school!
Awesome! This was our first year to win an award at our school as well!
Edit: I'm working on getting registered for the ACT and have already taken the SAT (1390), but I'm taking another and practicing for it this time, so that should help. My GPA is currently a 4.56, and I'm fairly close to top 10% (we are a small private school with only 30 kids per grade, so it's easy to get knocked out of the top spots). We don't do class rank at our school besides the top 2 in the grade. I've also been working on internships, and have STEM leadership roles, such as robotics team captain.
I've updated with more specifics. Sadly our guidance counselor has not been helpful in terms of unweighted and weighted GPA and my specific class rank, but everything else should be there.
Such a fun season this year! Sadly, our team didn't make it past our region's championship, but we were close and won the first award in the history of our team! (This is our third year as a team and we've won the judges award this year) Seeing as we are done for the year, besides a unique opportunity to participate in TAPPS (Texas Association of Private and Parochial Schools), we've started discussing ways to improve as a team, especially within outreach and design processes. We've discussed contacting different companies in the STEM community, as well as furthering our interaction with our school community's middle school robotics class, but the most exciting opportunity we're working on is starting an FLL team within our school! (We are a k-12 school) Any advice on the best way to kick off these outreach opportunities? We are a small team with only seven students, with 4 of them being very new to robotics.
