Yesterday, the students raced robots. Today, they will begin to build sustainable houses.

Students at Hamilton County’s STEM School are discovering that project-based learning not only teaches them something, it can be fun, too.

The latest project for the student body was to build robots and race them. Teams of teachers and students competed Thursday afternoon in a spirited race.

The students stood around a wooden maze and cheered as Principal Tony Donen officiated the races of their personally programmed and constructed Boe-Bots.

Teachers Nicelle Price-Gray and Valery Taylor watched as their Boe-Bot completed the wooden maze in one minute and 20 seconds.
