Great Job in St. Louis Ptt Pirates! A big THANK YOU goes out to all of the sponsors, parents, chaperons, mentors and of course the students for making this happen. We placed 56 out of 100 teams in the Galileo division. The winning alliance came from the Galileo division, so we must have been in the toughest division?! Our 5-4-0 record was pretty good and our driving and execution was solid! GREAT JOB FOLKS. Special kudos go out to Sonny Le for winning the UL Safety Start at the INTERNTIONAL competition! You guys are great! We are planning an end of year event. Stay posted for more information! Go Pitt Pirates!
Are you ready to go? We are leaving Tuesday night (4/24) from the Pitt County School offices (1717 W Fifth Avenue). Be there a little before 6 if possible. We’re hoping for a sendoff! Be sure we have your travel forms. You CAN NOT GO without signed permission slips. Get your homework done, pack your Pitt Pirates T-shirts and safety glasses and pre-scout your teams. Mr Black has sent out some great lists to use for scouting. We have to know our opponents to be competitive at this level. Get on Chief Delphi, Youtube and the FIRST websites for links and information.
*** Contact me or Mrs McClung ASAP if there are any questions or problems.***
We’ll be checking with people tonight. Go Pitt Pirates!
