Five of our students proudly represented PCMS in their first-ever appearance at the WV State FIRST LEGO League Challenge Tournament over the weekend. Competing in the Robot Table Games division—alongside teams ranging in age from 9 to 16—they earned an impressive 29th place out of 53 teams. The group excelled on the table, completing one full round perfectly by running all codes successfully and avoiding any touch penalties within the 2:30 time limit. In addition to their strong robot performance, they confidently presented their Innovation Project to a panel of judges. The students did an outstanding job, and Mr. Bell is extremely proud of their hard work and accomplishments.
