Students can bring in their homework questions, projects and study materials and teachers from the core subject areas will be available to offer help. It is also an opportunity to form study groups, receive practice in taking SAT, ACT STAAR and EOC tests, or use the technology in the library for research.

Barber students make presentation
at Rockwell Automation Conference
 Several Barber Middle School students on the Advanced Engineering Team presented in November at the Rockwell Automation Conference. The students used their public speaking skills as they demonstrated their robot and shared information about the robotics programs in Dickinson ISD.
The president of the robotics program, FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology), spent a great deal of time with the students and was very impressed with their innovative design. He encouraged the students to submit an entry for the Innovation Award.
The public is invited to come out and see the innovative work happening in the robotics programs at Dickinson ISD campuses at the FLL Qualifier Match and EARLY Fall Competition scheduled for 8 a.m.-4 p.m. Saturday, December 14 at Dickinson High School. |
