The PBL JH LEGO League Team is preparing to start their season. Students interested in joining the team have to complete an application. LEGO League is a unique, cohesive group of students who are interested in applying their skills in an exciting competition while working within a team. In LEGO League, students will be working as a team to complete a series of challenges that include both designing and programming. This year’s challenge theme is looking at the incorporation of art into STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math). Here is a link to the student application: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1mCNfr3cr0hm5MBdcA4mPWzY0uK7Q3oDBHVqC-udiolo/edit.
