Re: Engineering and Robotics program in danger
Thanks for all the replies. I hear what you are saying gblake and STEM education is the goal but I can only focus on FIRST because that is the program I know. I know how much the program means to my team, how much they learn and how many go on to college. The charts are great, scientific evidence. Thanks to Frank and jreuter for giving an insider perspective. I plan on writing a polite, well-reasoned e-mail to the board members, knowing that I am an outsider, and I will PM Frank and jreuter.
Part of what bothers me most - I understand the financial pressures put school systems but I do not understand the unwillingness of the public to pay for our students to have a great education.
