High Tech Kids

I coach competitive robotics for middle-schoolers. After a 5 year hiatus, I quickly found out that a lot had changed. But the joy of developing budding tech talent never gets old. zachonleadership.com/for-the-love-o… @HighTechKidsMN

Want to learn more about programming the Spike Prime robot? We are having a training on Wednesday evening, registration is required. #MNFLL hightechkids.org/fll-overview/t…

Due to an unexpected loss of funding from a key sponsor, we need to increase our registration fees this year. This decision was not made lightly and further details can be found on our website or in your email. Contact Cheryl@hightechkids.org with any questions or concerns.

Rainout! We are so sorry to those of you we were not able to connect with today, but Mother Nature had other plans. No robots were harmed, so don’t worry! We look forward to coming back in 2025.
