MONROE The Monroe County Intermediate School District’s summer robotics camp is a roaring success and will become an annual program, officials said.
“This is the first year we have offered the camp. We’re having it for four weeks, and we could fill it for four more if we wanted to,” said Stephen McNew, the district’s assistant superintendent for curriculum and instruction.
The camp is open to any students in Monroe County. Participants attend from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m Monday through Thursday and on Fridays take a field trip to see how real robots are used in business.
“They get to play with real robots, not just the ones they build,” Mr. McNew said.
