Team 116 Parents
Many thanks to the parents who have attended our regular Thursday night meetings. We hope to see many more of you so we can fully support the team this year. Craig Morrow and Dave Tripp have identified numerous areas where parents can be of special help. Below you will find a list of Robotics Team Adult Jobs. We'd love to have all jobs covered by January when Robotics moves into full swing! If you can volunteer for any of the vacant jobs (or if you have already volunteered for a job and your name has been omitted), please contact me at Haberland@qwestonline.com. Better yet, come to the Robotics Parents Meeting in the Drama Room every Thursday that our students meet! We'd love to get every parent involved and look forward to meeting you all!
During the last Robotics Team Parents meeting, 20 Novermber, an important agenda was set for the December 4 parent meeting (7:00 PM). We are looking for help/ideas with the following:
We would like to see the great Robotics Team program at Herndon High continue next year for those that will be returning. The consensus is that the above issues need to be addressed quickly so that necessary planning can take place this year to keep the program strong for the years to come.
We are looking for your input on potential candidates for the above key roles, and hope to see you there at the Robotics Team Parents meeting this Thursday evening at 7:00 PM in Mr. Tripp's room.
