Week of Nov 5

IED classes will finish up a study of measurement and statistics this week by learning to use Excel to complete the tedious standard deviation calculations, among others.  Our next unit will take us in to designing first through sketches and drawing and finishing up with finally starting to use Autodesk Inventor.  When we begin Inventor, I will open a link that will allow students to download a copy of Inventor for use at home.  The school license for the software allows students to use the our software for educational purposes.

This week is the last week of the six weeks.  Make sure that your grades are up to date before Friday.  Look for report cards to come out next week.  In preparation for the grade deadline, this Wednesday will be  a WOW day, but Thursday will NOT be a late start.  Make sure to plan your schedule for the week accordingly, and take advantage of the tutoring time during the WOW period Wednesday afternoon.

This Saturday is the FADE competition. Teams will need to be at the front of the school (100 bldg) in time to  leave at 5:30 a.m.  Check my FADE update page for details and more information.  It is exciting to see the teams working through their ideas and preparing to represent RRHS well in College Station.
