The end of RoboPride 2781

Last night the school I teach at announced they will be closing the doors at the end of this school year. This announcement marks the end of RoboPride 2781, the team I've lead for four years.

RoboPride is the most established all-girls team in Illinois. This year we will graduate five members into alum status. The rest of our team members futures are uncertain, but we are working to help them find security in the face of this loss.

It was our mission to bring to light the opportunities of engineering to young women everywhere we went. I hope somehow this mission continues beyond RoboPride. I am proud to have had this unique experience, and I can't really explain fully how it changed me.

RoboPride will compete in this years game. It will be an interesting experience to know this is our last hurrah. The team has been making huge strides in the last few years. I'm really hoping for our first championship berth.

Anyways, keep an eye out for a great new team from the Chicago area next year. I don't know where I'll land, but I know I'll be involved in FIRST again. (If you know of any leads, I'd appreciate it)

Thanks!
