⚙️ Blood, Sweat and Gears! ⚙️
Today our High School Robotics team—Blood Sweat and Gears—is competing against 41 other schools from around Michigan at the FIRST Robotics Competition at Ferris State University!
FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) challenges students to design, build, and program robots for head-to-head competition. This year’s game is along the lines of robot basketball meets strategy and defense. The robot has to collect dodgeball-like balls and deliver them to a hopper to score, while blocking opponents from doing the same.
Opening ceremonies are at 10:30 AM with competition starting at 11 AM and running through tomorrow afternoon.
The event is FREE and open to the public at Wink Arena. Stop by to cheer them on if you can!
Good luck, Warriors! ❤️💙

🏫 We’ve Heard Your Questions 🏫
Over the past several weeks, we’ve received a number of thoughtful questions from community members about the proposed bond.

We’ve also updated our website to include a clearer, building-by-building list of planned improvements so you can see what’s being proposed at each school.
Our goal is to provide clear, accessible information so community members can review the proposal and make an informed decision.

Spring testing season is here, and many of our students begin testing this week.
We know families often have questions about the different tests and what they mean, so we’ve created a Student Testing Guide that covers what tests students take, what they measure, and how you can support your child during testing season.
The guide — along with other helpful resources for families — can be found on our website here:

From classroom to career—before graduation. 💼🔥
Yesterday, senior Arron Fox officially signed a full-time work contract with Bandit Industries in Remus, turning his Work-Based Learning experience into a career before graduation!
Through this opportunity, Arron will receive health benefits, vacation time, a 401K, and employee stock ownership. Talk about setting yourself up for success! 👏
Arron has been putting in the work—starting his day at 6:00 AM on the job, then heading to school by 11:00 AM
His advice for future students? “Show up and work. Work hard.”
To celebrate his accomplishment, Arron was gifted a customized welding jacket, welding helmet, and a Bandit hat, presented by Bandit representatives Amber Wittig and Kevin Baker (CH alum and Arron’s supervisor!).
We’re grateful to Bandit Industries for investing in our students and creating real-world opportunities right here at home.
Arron was surrounded by an incredible support system at his signing, including his family, the Mecosta Osceola Career Center, and Chippewa Hills staff.
Congratulations, Arron! We’re so proud of you! ❤️💙
