  Applicant: David Scarcella
  Mini-Grant Name: ROBOcamp
  Abstract: ROBOcamp is an innovative project being offered to sixth-, seventh- and eighth-grade students as an extension of our first year to offer engineering as a high school course.  The goal is to spark interest in engineering for students who excel in math and science.  This is an awesome opportunity for students to explore entry level robotics while promoting skills in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) necessary for that particular career pathway.  Two summer camps will be available for 5 days each from 8 a.m to 2 p.m. with lunch and T-shirt provided.  Local engineers will be available to provide support.
  Amount: $4,970
