We Won Third in NT Best Award!





I cannot tell you how proud we as home educator parents are for our children! They have worked so very hard the last six weeks in preparing for this competition. There are two sets of awards given out for this competition. One is for the actual Robots and its driving and although in the Semi finals our drivers actually got us into first place (Sarah and Caleb!) our finals round didn't go very well and we placed fourth! However 4th from 14 teams is awesome still and therefore we are still very proud. Although as the judges announced those, they come to a point where they say, the robotics challenge is great and all that is not why they do this competition. They do it because they want to see schools come together in an effort for teamwork, best sportmanship, and spirit. Therefore they place the NT BEST Award higher than the actual Robotic award and we were given 3rd place in that award and Wow how spectacular that is! I am so very proud of my three! They did their work seriously on top of all the schoolwork they had! Mom didn't slack off very much during this six weeks and so we are still ahead of the game and doing our BEST! Go Home Educators Around Texoma (HEAT!), you all did a wonderful job!
