Important Announcements

• DVHS Robotics Tournament

  • The DVHS Robotics Tournament overall ran successfully — we give a huge thank you to all of our volunteers! We owe our success to all our parent and student volunteers who donated their time and effort to making sure the event ran smoothly.

• DVHS Robotics Summer Camp

  • The annual DVHS Robotics Summer Camp sign-ups are now open. The DVHS Robotics Summer Camp teaches essential engineering and programming principles to introduce middle school students to these fascinating topics. This year, we’ve also opened up an advanced session for those who have attended the camp in previous years. If you know any middle school students that are interested, please let them know about this amazing opportunity!

• Novice

  • As the Novice program comes to a close, the Directors of Education would like to thank all of the Novice members for their great work and dedication throughout this semester! We are beginning the selection process for our Developmental Teams, which will begin during second semester. These teams will be making robots for the current season’s game In the Zone, and will focus on learning how to function like a regular competitive team. The results will be emailed to Novice members over winter break.
