Re: We're DOne for sure!

Donny Fresh,

I believe you guys are done, and I'll even believe it was mostly, if not all student built. This is because I know it's theoretically possible, and from what I've read about your school... if a school was going to prepare students to do it, you're certainly in the right place.

It must be great going to a Trade and Technical High School in what looks to be a very active, organized, well-supported school district with a lot of great ideas about how to educate prepare their students for life.

Your Team clearly demonstrates what can be accomplished if students are empowered and inspired in the right ways.

Now, instead of bragging about it and (whether intentionally or not) trying your hardest to make people resentful of your good fortune, why don't you and your classmates do something more productive and try to figure out how you can use your unique position to better serve the FIRST community.

Clearly you all must have learned a lot. What enabled you to be in such a unique situation. How might other students strive to attain similar successes? If you got thrown into a "normal" high school like most of the students here, what actions would you take to bring your experience closer to what you have experienced within the Yonkers Public Schools?
