That is awesome. Thank you! I believe that is the only tax deductible way to go about it at this time.
 
Im in. (thanks @Joful for finding the paypal link)

Great to see the kids getting such a great experience out of the program. My company is one of the top corporate sponsors of FIRST Robotics (I think they call it crown level or something?) so it gives me a smile to see it helping kids and building interest in STEM careers.

Building and competing has also brought the kids close together, and suddenly my awkward kiddo is part of a close group sharing laughter and friendship. Tonight they all went to the skating rink, and there are hiking and other plans in the making.


As an aside, my students were in the paper today. Nothing much, but it's alwsys fun for them. The paper version had nicer pictures. http://www.blueridgenow.com/article...Title=Former-state-rep-talks-bugs-to-students
 
Reminds me of those nights when I was in high school biology running around under the lights at the local Dairy Queen catching bugs for the project. And pins. Lots of pins.

I would have liked robotics better. >>

The biology teacher was single. When she kept bringing various tarantulas and snakes from home to show us I told her I could figure out why she was single. She replied "It is love me, love my bugs.". ;lol She was shacking up with the weird guy that taught physics. Guess he didn't mind big ass spiders and snakes. My imagination ran wild.
 
I don't know too many teachers who assign a bug collectio, so that's pretty cool. She sounds interesting. No spiders here, though we had a bearded dragon for awhile as a class pet
