Indian Salute of the Month

Team #4909 Billerica Bionics unveiled their robot this past weekend at the Granite State Regional at Nashua South High School.  They will be traveling to Worcester Polytechnic Institute this March 13 and 14 for their second qualifier.  Starting any program can be fraught with difficulties, both planned and unforeseen.  Mr. Beckford and Mr. Flood have navigated their initial foray into the world of robotics with a steady hand, providing guidance to the students and latitude for them to develop their own path for success.  Expectations were not set high for the young squad as they entered their first event, but the upstart team impressed veteran teams and the judges alike.  Our team concluded the 2-day qualifier with three trophies: Highest Seeded Rookie Team, Industrial Safety Award, and the Rookie All-Star Award.  Each of these recognitions is significant on its own, but combined are a true testament of the teamwork, leadership, and community investment that makes a venture such as this so successful.

Congratulations to Team #4909
