Q: How is being an all girls team special?
A: Being an all girls team is very special
because it encourages young women to excel in a traditionally
male-dominated field. There is no competition between the genders on
our team, and it gives females a voice.
Q: How many members are on your team?
A: There are approximately 40 girls in grades
9-12 participating, and this is only our first year. We are excited
to expand the program and attract many more participants in the
future.
Q: How is Robotics different from other
extracurricular activities?
A: Robotics implements teamwork, sportsmanship,
and hard work, just like any other sport, but it also prepares
students for career opportunities and problem solving in the future.
Q: What are the different aspects of the
Lancers Robotics Team?
A: The team is composed of many sub-teams, such
as the Build Team, Public Relations, Strategy Team, and many more. We
are a network of students working together to create the whole
package.
Q: Who is helping to support this project?
A: The mentors & sponsors,
not to mention SHA’s administrators and the Sisters.
Q: How much time and effort does this project
take?
A: The build season is only 6 weeks long, and
that period is very time-intensive. Over the year, though, the team
will meet for countless hours, long work periods, and packed weekends
to complete the different tasks at hand. It is all worth it!
