Welcome to our Student Robot Connection event! 🤖🌎
Students explored creativity, teamwork, and technology through hands-on robotics and Earth Day inspired activities.
Students rotated through five interactive stations that combined coding, problem-solving, and environmental awareness — all while practicing our P.R.I.D.E. core values: Positivity, Respect, Inclusivity, Dedication, and Empowered learning.
🎳 Strike Out Pollution
Students coded Dash robots to knock down “pollution” pins, building coding skills while learning the importance of protecting our environment.
🎨🖌 3Doodler Earth Day Art
Creativity came to life as students designed and built their own Earth Day creations in 3D using 3Doodler pens.
🌌 Planetarium Experience
Students explored space, learned about exploration, and discovered how innovation today shapes the future.
🌍 Indi Earth Challenge
Using color-coded mats, students programmed Indi robots to navigate to Earth Day images, strengthening sequencing and problem-solving skills.
🗺️ Ozobot – Our Corner of the World
Students created coded paths with markers, guiding Ozobots on journeys around the world while combining geography, creativity, and coding.
Throughout the day, teams tracked how they demonstrated P.R.I.D.E. values using tally cards, reflecting on teamwork, respect, and positivity at every station.
Thank you for joining us for a day of innovation, collaboration, and discovery! #weareplainedge #plainedgepride #community #education

Congratulations to the Charles E. Schwarting Student Council for being recognized with @thenaesp 2026 Student Council Excellence Award! 🌟
Their community service initiative, Help the Pet Shelters, made a meaningful impact by supporting local animal shelters through a school wide pet supply drive. Students, staff, and families came together to collect essential items including food, blankets, toys, and cleaning supplies to help care for animals awaiting adoption. 🐾
Beyond the donations, this project helped raise awareness about the ongoing needs of shelters while fostering compassion, responsibility, and a strong sense of community service among students.

After presenting their final findings, top teams earned honors and special recognitions. An engaging, immersive experience enjoyed by all!
