Kenwood School Newsletter Principally Speaking May 8, 2019

I would like to acknowledge and celebrate the tremendous efforts and participation of all of our students who were part of our Kenwood School Lego Robotics team this year. The annual event took place on Saturday, May 4 at Elsie Allen High School in Santa Rosa. We are proud of our students for their hard work, many hours of planning and practice, and their collaborative spirit! Special thanks to our coordinator, John Magnoli, who continues to do such an excel- lent job of leading this wonderful venture for our students. Thank you, as well, to our dedicated parent volunteers, who generously gave of their time to assist our students as “coaches” for Lego Robotics (Jerry Cook, Bastian Schoell, Mike Pine, Chi Pine, Meleah Sullivan, and Ivan Soto). Please join with me in honoring our students who were part of Kenwood School’s 2019 Lego Ro- botics team: Troy Brett, Jennifer Harger, Edwin Jetleb, Jayden Kunde, Joshua Pine, Nicolas Schoell, Max Cook, Tobias Jetleb, Alexander Schoell, Carter Powell, Kearah Reiss, Maddy Seller, Finn White, Jonathan Ramirez, Erick Soto, Neal Sullivan, Daryan Valencia, Anthony Kumar
