Kevin:
Thank you very much for your support by posting to the Nashua Telegraph article, and for starting this thread.

I am also a mentor for 1073 and am working with Frank Grossman and the other mentors to keep the technology programs in the school. This includes the academic classes, as well as the FIRST team.

I believe we have made a good start with showing the community support at the last school board meeting. You would have been proud to see the embodiment of gracious professionalism as our students quietly and respectfully participated in the meeting.

However, the school board and budget committees continue to discuss the cuts to budget and space. To date, there are no alternate cuts that have been identified.

The support from the greater FIRST community is appreciated.
One request: if you send a message to one of the people mentioned earlier, could you also send a private message to Frank or me to let us know?
