The 5th grade robotics team has done it again! The Wild Ketchum Bots team members Xander Jamison, Hadley Dumont, and Sophie Hash completed their second robotics tournament on Saturday, February 21, at Union Public Schools and came home with the coveted Judges’ Award. The Judges’ Award is based on an interview with the robotics judges who look for excellence in creative building, a descriptive engineering notebook, and the teams overcoming challenges in a positive way. Along with this accolade, the team placed 4th out of 31 teams and earned the right to compete in the state robotics competition! Congratulations Wild Ketchum Bots!
