Krisma Smith, MJHS teacher, MHS Robotics Mentor was 1 of 24 mentors out of 300 applicants selected to attend the 2019 Air Force/FIRST Robotics Leadership Program. Of the 21 states represented, Ms. Smith was the only mentor in the state of Arkansas selected. This year, Ms. Smith and Mr. Mouritsen are reviving our district's robotics team. We are extremely honored and proud to be apart of a once and a lifetime opportunity. The 24 mentors selected were flown to the Wright Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton, Ohio where they were trained exclusively on being effective leaders and teaching STEM/STEAM practices in their classrooms. The mentors were given private guided tours of the base including the research labs and the National Air Force Museum.
Any students (7-12th) interested in joining Robotics can speak to Ms. K.Smith (MJHS) ksmith@msd3.org or Mr. Mouritsen (MHS) dmouritsen@msd3.org.
