Kids compete in Lego League


The Sun Herald finally got around to reporting about the Lego League Championship (better late then never I guess).

The championship began with presentations in the morning when judges meticulously scrutinized every group of students, both on the quality of their designs and on their ability to work as a team.


After lunch all the students poured into the gymnasium for the live competition, with the best-scoring team winning the championship. Home-school students affiliated with the PEAK Home School Network won the championship this year.
