Imagine this, a 12 year old boy trudging through 7th grade below the radar barely passing his classes. This used to be me before I became involved in my robotics program at my school. The change between 7th grade and 8th grade was drastic. I went from doing nothing in my school to doing and participating in as much as I could. Now I have an A in every class. I look forward to going to school and my parents sometimes have to drag me out of the robotics classroom. The robotic and technical engineering involved with vex robotics is what I excel at. The differences vex has made in my grades and class participation is amazing. So far I’ve been to 3 tournaments one of which my school hosted. I’ve already set up my own arena at my house and often bring the robot home to practice with and design other bots with my Autodesk inventor suite 2011 cad program. I’m very proud to be the leader of VRC 2049D from Carver Middle School, Leesburg Florida.
