Re: Class Credit for FIRST

Team 316 actually gets college credits for robotics since our workshop is based in the community college in our county, not at one of the 5 high schools we pull from. Salem Community College offers us the ability to recieve 18 credits total (4 the first two semesters, 5 the last two) for a maximum of 4 semesters. Our team leader is the Adjunct Professor and they assign us homework periodically which factor into our grade, as well as participation and attendence. Usually we all get fairly good grades in the classes, which has helped a few of our seniors out in the fact that they enter college as a sophomore, not a freshman (they also took classes through the high school at a college their senior year)
