On Friday October, 24, Kevin Lavery came in and interviewed multiple students from our 3rd block robotics class. This interview is more unique than others because, not only did it discuss the Palau Team and their project, but he also interviewed students from the competition teams about their own specific projects. The interview was aired on Tuesday. If you would like to check it out, the link is posted below.

Last Monday, October 22nd, Congressman Kenny Bentivolio came into the classroom for a visit. Mr. Richards and Mr. Bentivolio are long time friends that met in the army many years ago and have stayed in contact. Mr. Bentivolio asked for "just 8 minutes of our time," to explain his life story and how he decided to become a congressman after teaching for many years. He toured the classroom and learned about all of our different ROVs and projects we have going on.

Early Tuesday morning, the marketing girls and Mr. Richards drove to Ann Arbor to give a live radio interview on 102.9 W4 Country. Bubba and his crew were amazed at the team and couldn't believe that high school students were participating in something this big and important.
