I recently came across a bunch of patches from all the places I visited with WardlaLAartridge students over the past 28 years when I started here as an educator. I'm amazed by all the wonderful and engaging places we visited and learned some much from.
I have many fond recollections visiting countries like France, Italy, the United Kingdom and China, along with historical venues right here in our own backyard like Colonial Williamsburg, Mount Vernon, Washington, D.C., Lake Placid, the Liberty Bell, the Veterans Center in New Jersey to the Edison Memorial Light Tower right down the road from the school. |

LA to host national robotics competition |
More than 40 teams from across the United States will converge on our campus on Sunday, May 19 to take part in the annual RoboCupJunior USA Tournament.
The RoboCupJunior USA competition challenges students up to 19 years old to work collaboratively as a team to design, create and code robots to solve problems. The competition is divided into three leagues – Soccer, Rescue, and OnStage. The robots are fully autonomous, using sensors to explore the world around them and make decisions without human intervention. The competition is open to students with any level of experience, and teams can use any tool or technology they want, from modifying preexisting robotics kits to building everything from scratch.
Winning teams may be eligible to participate in the RoboCupJunior International Competition, which is a part of RoboCup, the largest robotics and artificial intelligence competition in the world. RoboCup is organized by RoboCup Federation each summer and will be held July 18-21 in Eindhoven, Netherlands. Last year, 36 countries from around the world were represented at the RoboCupJunior International Competition. |
