I could take the addition of a VEX team in my school as a negative towards my FIRST team. I see it as two groups working with two distinct populations. Both working towards similar goals (now I do have a VERY strong opinion which program has better student outcomes). By advocating for FIRST we are directly advocating for more STEM funding in the state of Virginia. I think we can all agree that this is an outcome we can all get behind.
