Dr. A.R. Lord is one of the few VSB elementary schools that will have the opportunity to learn coding, engineering principals, and foster problem solving and teamwork through a new comprehensive Robotics Program. This incredible opportunity is possible due to the collaboration of students, parents, teachers and community partners.
The Parent Advisory Council has donated funding for the implementation of a full classroom set of VEX IQ Robots to enhance STEM (Science, Technology Engineering and Math) learning in a fun hands on environment.
