nnie has been cheering for the St. Pius X girls & boys basketball teams. She's enjoying it so much that she'll be trying out to cheer next year at Dowling Catholic High School. Erin displayed her love of art at the 4th grade hobby show at St. Pius X during Catholic Schools Week. She is also swimming again this year and has consistently made personal bests as she got used to competing at 50 yd events instead of the 25 yd events of last year.
John has been working on his robotic crane in engineering class and his team was chosen by their peers to represent Dowling Catholic to the state legislators at the Iowa Capitol Building. They spent the day showing off their work to legislators and the governor. They also used their time to build another robot that used iPod Touches and Skype. The video here shows it roaming around. They also had the robot go up the elevator to the Senate Chambers! What fun!
