Joe Hill's robotics team won the Design Award for the region!!! His journey began in kindergarten, with the design challenges, Expos, and creation centers here at Jamerson. He developed a fierce love of construction, deconstruction, and design. Engaging, hands on lessons, high standards, cooperative and inclusive learning groups, teacher-driven innovations, and engineering challenges all helped him on his journey- plus his mom is pretty great too!!!
