We are thrilled to share the exciting news that our 4th and 5th-grade students recently showcased their exceptional skills and teamwork at the 18th Annual Garrett County FIRST LEGO League Challenge (FLLC) Maryland State Qualifier event on Saturday, February 3, 2024.
Not only did our school send not just one but two amazing teams to the competition, but they also left a lasting impression on everyone present. With a total of 21 participating teams, our students demonstrated creativity, innovation, and teamwork, making us incredibly proud of their accomplishments.
While neither of our teams secured a spot for the States this time around, it’s important to highlight the remarkable progress and success they achieved, especially considering it was their first year participating in such a challenging event. The dedication, enthusiasm, and hard work exhibited by our students are truly commendable.
The event, hosted at the Northern High School, brought together young minds passionate about robotics and technology. It provided an excellent platform for our students to learn, grow, and showcase their skills. The atmosphere was buzzing with excitement as teams competed in various challenges, fostering a spirit of collaboration and friendly competition.
We want to extend our heartfelt congratulations to both teams for their outstanding efforts and achievements. Your commitment to learning, problem-solving, and teamwork has set a high standard for future participation. Remember, success is a journey, not a destination!
Let’s give a big round of applause to our young innovators, mentors, and everyone who supported them in this exhilarating journey. We can’t wait to see what incredible feats our teams will accomplish in the coming years!
Thank you, Friendsville Elementary community, for your unwavering support. Here’s to nurturing the next generation of leaders and thinkers!
