FIRST® ROBOTICS COMPETITION – WHAT KIND OF ROBOT WILL YOU BUILD? Ever wanted to learn how
to design, program, and build a full size robot? Ever wanted to learn Computer Aided Design? Or, have you ever
wanted to come up with a marketing campaign and help to build a brand? If you’ve answered ‘yes’ to any of these
questions, and if you’re willing to commute to the Kiel High School, then we have the robotics team for you. The
Lakeshore FIRST® Robotics Program, and Kiel High School have teamed up to start a FIRST Robotics Team that
will be comprised of students from Kiel High School, Elkhart Lake High School, New Holstein High School, and
homeschooled students from throughout the area. On January 3rd, 2015, we will receive the challenge via NASA
Webcast for the 2015 season, and teams from around the world will have just 6 weeks to build a robot to complete
that challenge. But you’re not alone, many professional engineers and teachers will be at your side to teach you the
skills that you need to build a competitive robot. And if our team wins the Rookie All Star Award, then we’re headed
to the world championship in St. Louis! To find out more and to join the new area robotics team, please
attend the informational open house from 6:00 to 8:00 pm on Thursday, December 4th at Kiel High
School. It will be complete with several captains from area robotics teams (so that you can ask questions of students
your own age), who will also be driving two robots playing last year’s game - Aerial Assist. We hope to see you on
December 4th for a spot on this team that is so new we haven’t even named it yet. For more information on FIRST®
please go to www.usfirst.org and for any questions, please see Mr. Ostermann, Mrs. Bunyea, or Mr. Brown.
Students interested in taking the ASVAB TEST, should sign up on the Guidance Office door. The test will be held here
on Dec. 10th. The ASVAB is a FREE test administered to students 16 years or older who are either interested in the
military or who are uncertain about their future and want to take a test to discover more about careers that be fit for
them. Please see Mrs. Bunyea for more information or just sign up and she will seek you out. Deadline to sign up is
Wednesday, Dec. 10th.
ATTENTION STUDENTS AGE 16 OR OLDER --- The Elkhart Lake Lions Club is searching for Lions International
Youth Exchange participants. Two students, age 16 to 20, have the opportunity to see the world, or at least more of
it. Please see Mrs. Bunyea, as soon as possible, to learn more about spending 2-4 weeks in a country of your choice.
You would spend one to two weeks with a Lions Club family and up to two weeks at a Lions Club International Club
with other teens from around the world. The Lions Club helps to pay for ½ the airfare (up to $700) and basic foods
and housing are provided, so take advantage of this rare travel opportunity. Again, see Mrs. Bunyea, as soon as
possible, if this sounds interesting to you. Names need to be submitted by Dec. 12th to move forward on opportunity,
so talk to her now!
SENIORS – Mrs. Bunyea has updated the collective scholarship list on her blog so please be sure to check out
that list as soon as possible. You don’t want to miss the opportunity to apply for free money!

schedule. Please check your Skyward account to view your Semester 2 schedule and see her in the next 2 weeks
