Girls are still undermined?

610 is an all boys school, and we were surprised to see our pit and robot neatly decorated with hot pink boas and flowers upon arrival this morning. - Mr. Lim [more]

Re: Girls are still undermined?

We feel one of our missions is to provide new experiences for every kid on our team. On our team we don't let anyone stay in their comfort zone for long, boy or girl.

We have many girls on our build and drive teams. Why??

When a girl on our team says, I would rather not drill holes or drive a robot.

Guess what they are doing next meeting!

After that they can logically decide if they would rather build or do something else like promotions or art work.

Thats one way we make it happen on our team.
