We hope by 2016 that we will have 12 robotics learning communities.

The goal is to have 1,000 Corky Coloring books across 12 states, so far we have 8 elementary schools answering the 2016 challenge in Missouri.

We are starting the learning communities by starting a BEMRC (Broad Engagement Mentoring Robotics Club) in elementary schools. If you know Elementary school principals looking to start a program like this, send me a PM. There is no overhead cost, and we get together on a weekly call for us all to get together.
