If you read only one thing today...make it this story about the #drone team from Brockton High:
"The other teams come from suburban districts, some offering aeronautical engineering programs. Others have parents who are engineers or have time and resources to take them on weekend drone excursions.
The Brockton kids speak multiple languages and have impressive GPAs, but they don’t have those built-in advantages. Quite the opposite. Two live in foster homes." https://www.wgbh.org/news/education-news/2024-06-24/brockton-high-students-fight-for-their-futures-at-americas-most-violent-high-school #droneracing
