2017-2018 MRBC Board is Filled!

 

It is with tremendous appreciation and excitement that we officially announce all of the MRBC Officer Positions have been filled, so McKamy Robotics Club can exist at McKamy in compliance with LISD for 2017-2018!!  We know there are at least 37 students who will be ecstatic to hear from you the news today and are so appreciative of the parent support!

 

The parents filling the open President and Secretary position are new to McKamy Robotics and are so committed to STEM development for our students.  They self-nominated for their respective positions and have gained an understanding of the roles & responsibilities of the positions working with the current Board.

 

The open officer positions were appointed pursuant to our Bylaws.  Please join us in welcoming your 2017-2018 McKamy Robotics Booster Club Officers:

 

President - Karen Cook

Vice President - Shveta Gupta

Secretary - Lara Young

Treasurer - Sarita Mamillapalli

 

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!  Principal Knight and Mr. Blalack are so looking forward to working with the new Board and Parent Mentors to continue to grow MRC, the first middle school robotics program in LISD!

 

We have been working on the transition plan considering current and past board members vacations, some out of country, and Mr. Blalack and Principal Knight trip supporting our students who made TSA Nationals in Orlando. 

 

We THANK our outgoing Board and Parent Mentors!  We thank Mr. Blalack and Principal Knight! Each of you has positively enriched the lives of our students, inspired each other and other schools looking to start a robotics program, and have lived the mission of McKamy Robotics over your tenure. We wish you the best at FMHS!!

We are very fortunate to have 14 parents who have agreed to serve as Parent Mentors for 2017-2018...that is Outstanding!  

 

A separate communication will go to the MRBC Officers and Parent Mentors directly with more details on the transition logistics for above.  Graduating Parent Mentors will also be invited to share their experiences, if available!  

 

The new board will advise if and/or when additional new member recruitment would occur in the fall to fill the potential remaining open 23 student opportunities.  As a reminder MRC maximum is 10 teams with max of 6 students per team, as long as we have 2 Parent Mentors for each team.
