"How do you know WHEN 'It's Back-to-School Time'?"




Like most kids, our 7 year old can't wait for SUMMERTIME!  He enjoys weekday recreation time, endless playing in the backyard and daily fun at community playgrounds, meeting new friends in his extended school year program, camps, staying up late, etc.... 
As Parents, we know it's back to school time WHEN:
  • big box stores put out the school supplies displays (1 month in advance)
  • clothing retail stores advertise school attire with summer clothes in their commercials (1 month in advance)
  • our son is 'tired' of summer camp (last 2-3 days)
  • our son is asking for new SCHOOL apps on the iPad, iPod Touch! (2 weeks in advance)
  • you've seen all of the summer movies at the local theater
  • you're bored with the selections in Redbox, Netflix, Hulu, iTunes, Media Hub, etc...
  • our son resets his summer 'wake-up' and 'go-to-bed' schedule to the SCHOOL TIME!
If you think about it, there are many signs of the school time.  Students, Parents, Teachers and the Community share in the 'Back-to-School' annual mode.

"How do you know WHEN 'It's Back-to-School Time'?"

Northshore High School's FIRST Robotics Team 1912 Combustion, located in Slidell, Louisiana, was established in the fall of 2005 by a small group of seniors. Since then, we have expanded into a diverse family of mentoring professionals and enthusiastic students from all grades. As we implemented the values and goals of FIRST throughout the seasons, every student was able to leave the team enriched with vital science, engineering, and real-life skills. The overwhelming task of building a functioning, effective robot within six weeks challenges students to communicate, cooperate, and learn as a team. Throughout this intense timeframe team members absorb everything from project management to programming and power-drilling, and become dedicated to promoting science and technology. Our love for teamwork and engineering extends into the off-season with demos, volunteering, workshops, and camps throughout the region. With so many places to go and events to run, students here at Northshore discover that building the robot is only the beginning of their FIRST experience.
