We hosted our annual Bake Sale fundraiser and it was a huge success! We received so many donations from T-VEX families that made this fundraiser happen. On top of that, we raised over $300 for our VEX program! Thanks to all the members of T-VEX and the students of MCS for making this fundraiser the most successful yet!
The Asian Pacific Robotic Competition reaches out to students in Asia, interested in pursuing a career in the STEM field. This year, T-VEX was invited to provide a demo for the students at the competition in TI Headquarters in Dallas. The students were no older than 13, yet they all showed a huge interest in the robots. Every one of them was eager to drive our robots and learn about the building process. Since the competition was using LEGO Mindstorm robots, our High School VEX robots gave the students a chance to see what was in store for them as they got older and continued to compete in robotic competitions.
Every year, the Chinese Institute of Engineering (CIE) hosts a math competition for students K-8. This was a great opportunity to advertise our IQ teams as they were heading into their 3rd year. Many of the students at the competition showed great interest towards our IQ program and live in our area, allowing us recruit new members. We wanted to reach out to the community and increase their knowledge about VEX so more students can get involved and join the program.
