North Star – Winners of Woodie Flowers, Dean’s List and Creativity Award



Welcome Teams 6487 and 6803 from Shanghai China!
The Clockwork Knights (6487) and HAI-Panda (6803) joined NoMythic and the 7849ers (7849) at Great River School last night for a robotics party. There was food, games, prizes, and, of course, robots. All four teams will be supporting each other and competing at North Star later this week. Go Teams!



Duluth – Northern Lights Competition
It’s always a treat to travel with the team to competition. Team members pull together to do the million tasks required to successfully compete – and revel in the time to just hang out together. The robot is still a work on progress – and our rank reflected that – but we made huge strides, and the team came home raring to prepare for and attend our next competition in Minneapolis in just two more weeks.


Lego League at GRS – FULL! – September 13, 2018
Parents – we need help! We must have two adults per team in order to run the teams. Students with a parent volunteering get priority for spots on the teams. Practices are on Wednesday afternoons until mid-December. We’re particularly looking for adults who can support and focus student behavior – not technical issues. Lego training provided.

Great River will have four Lego League teams again this year. And they are now full. Please check back again next year.
