En resumen, el comunicado de Dr. Aguilera, Superintendente del Distrito Escolar de Gadsden, explica lo siguiente:

Como parte del movimiento #RedForEd existe una gran probabilidad que los maestros en Arizona formen parte de un paro laboral para exigir al gobierno del estado más fondos y mejores recursos para las escuelas públicas.

Hasta el momento, no sabemos exactamente cuándo y/o cuantos días pueda extenderse este posible paro laboral. Los representantes del movimiento de cada escuela perteneciente al distrito escolar de Gadsden nos han asegurado que nos avisaran con tiempo acerca de sus decisiones/acciones.

Si los maestros de nuestras escuelas deciden participar en el paro laboral, las escuelas del distrito permanecerán cerradas.

La seguridad de los estudiantes es nuestra prioridad. Por lo tanto, les comunicaremos todos los detalles en cuanto tengamos más información.

Usaremos todas nuestras plataformas de comunicación (Facebook, páginas oficiales de cada escuela, mensajes, etc.) para mantenerlos al tanto.

Gracias por su comprensión y apoyo.

This is a great moment of pride for San Luis Middle School to inform that from thousands of robotics coaches across the world, Mr. Mehul Gandhi has been selected as a ‘Showcase Speaker’ at the FIRST® Robotics World Championship event in Texas, U.S. on April 18-21, and in Detroit, Michigan, on April 25-28. FIRST® (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) became a game changer in the STEM world more than 25 years ago. This event will be attended by people all over the globe and will be telecasted across many nations.

Based on the experience with the robotics and the successful launch of first robotics team in San Luis Middle school and the community; Mr. Gandhi was recognized and shortlisted for a rigorous interview by a panel of experts in the field. Some of the experts on the panel were Vince Wilczynski, the Deputy Dean of the Yale School of Engineering & Applied Science, and Dia Stolnitz, Director of Strategic Projects.

It is worth mentioning here that Mr. Gandhi was instrumental in inspiring the students to learn robotics and leading them to win the FIRST® Lego League County Championship in Yuma. His contribution to the STEM in the form of robotics challenge that led to FIRST® Tech Challenge impressed them. He was honored with a VIP invitation along with a return flight and lodging at their expense.

The following link to Mr. Gandhi’s blog will give you information related to the initiation of robotics challenge in this community.
