Funding for Robotics Teams and Advisors in All Cherry Hill Schools


Funding for Robotics Teams and Advisors in All Cherry Hill Schools
The Issue
Our State and World Championship teams are in jeopardy because of no school funding for team advisors and materials. Please sign the petition so that advisor stipends be written into the teacher's upcoming contract renewal and funding budgeted for robotics teams in all Cherry Hill schools. Robotics is the only STEM-focused and competitive extracurricular activity in the district. Robotics, engineering and computer science are the fastest growing fields in the U.S. and around the world. Robotics team is the most exciting, fun and collaborative way of learning hands-on knowledge and skills. Early exposure to STEM learning improves student academic achievement, and provides equitable opportunities for all students. There are numerous college scholarships, internships, and college admission advantages for students in robotics. Please support our students and their future!
