Letter From Student

*IBM FIELD TRIP*

On April 23rd we, the students of East Lee Middle School, went on a field trip to the activity center at IBM, an enormous building. We had fun with our mentors. We spent the whole day with them. They are very entertaining.

My mentor was Stacy. I really did appreciate her being my mentor. All the mentors are very amusing to be around.

We were challenged to build a 5 minute robot. We successfully accomplished the mission. Then we toke a nature walk to celebrate our victory.

Finally, at the end of the event, we had lunch with our mentors. It was a tremendous day!
