Alva Robotics for the win. The kids stuck with it and found their grove.

Alva Robotics placed first in the game competition at Heartland BEST at NWOSU today! I am so proud of the kids and their ingenuity and hard work. Huge thanks to our Robotics families and the community for your support! On to the Regional competition in Denver in December!
