Strike two: Parents will be contacted by the teacher and must pick up their child immediately. The student will not be allowed to return for the next meeting.

Strike three: Parents will be contacted by the teacher and must pick up their child immediately. The student will not be allowed to return for the remainder of the season.

Additionally, students must be picked up from practice on time. After 3 late pickups, student will be removed from the team for the remainder of the season.

Briefly Explain any checked item above:

Participation in Robotics requires a significant amount of time from August through Early March and potentially longer if team advances. List other activities during this time or throughout the year that may impact your involvement with the team.

Scenario: You had many ideas and none of them were chosen by your teammates. What steps could you take to move on and still be a productive member of your team?

Scenario: You have finished doing the task you needed to get done for today. What could you do with the remainder of your time to help your team?

Scenario: You are on a team with more than one strong personality (maybe even your own). Things become heated while discussing what needs to be done to change the robot design. How would you keep the team calm and guide students to work well together?

Scenario: VEX IQ is a student led program, which means students need to do the work. On the scale below, how motivated are you to look things up (like how to program, completing research, ideas for robot design, etc…) and work through things on your own and possibly outside of practice times?
