Re: pic: FRC 3320, Changing Opinions

Thanks! I'm so proud of them. They're truly living up to their mission statement:

"We strive to be the change we want to see in the world. Through our unrivaled commitment to excellence in engineering, hands-on learning, and breaking down stereotypes, we inspire the entire Eastside Memorial High School community to look beyond today towards a brighter tomorrow where anything is possible."

The team will not be able to attend Championships but our two project robots will. A t-shirt cannon robot and a soda dispensing robot will be at the NI booth in the pits.

Everyone down here is saying that this could be the article that finally gets the school district to open their eyes. The media has been giving the team so much bad press that even the district sides with them and we have bigger obstacles in our path to grow as a team. Hopefully, this article is the first of many to come and helps break down the barrier.
