  • Tell us how Robotics has affected you, your child, your family!

    02-Sep-10 10:15 | anonymous member

    Has the Robotics Roundup program affected your child in a positive way? Is he or she understanding concepts better? Working more smoothly with a team? Becoming more focused? Enjoying him/herself more at school and after school? Just having loads of fun?!!

    If any of this sounds familiar, please let us know! We'd love to hear how Robotics Roundup is affecting your child! It helps us make a better program and it proves to our funders (you know, the ones who give us money and sponsor the program!) that their money is being spent wisely and effectively.

    Please give us your feedback by leaving us a note on this post. Just hit the "Add comment" link below. Remember, after you post it, your comment will be available for everyone to see. You can choose to remain anonymous or sign your post. If you don't wish to leave a public comment, but would still like us to know what you think, send our Executive Director, Sharon, an email at staylor@pvef.org.

    Thanks so much!
