Can a computer change a student's life?

At many schools, computers are an important tool in the classroom, giving students access for researching assignments and doing homework. But at Rosemary Anderson High School (RAHS), an alternative school in Portland, nearly 190 students must share the school's computer lab, which has only 20 working computers.

The Lake Monsters are sponsoring a computer drive now through Spring to collect used laptops, notepads and tablets.

The robotics team will refurbish the computers and donate them to at-risk students at RAHS, which has two campuses in north and east Portland. RAHS is the "last chance" to complete a high school education for students who have dropped out of school, been expelled or are homeless.

Donations can be dropped off at the Lakeridge High School main office during open hours. For special drop-off arrangements, email lakemonsters2635@gmail.com or call 503-756-5425.

Check out our FLL sister team in the news!

Lake Oswego is blessed with some wonderful robotics programs, including these two awesome FLL teams! This past week, the groups were featured on "Kids Doing Good Stuff." These two all-girls FLL teams are really bringing robotics to the schools, and we are so lucky to be able to support them! For the full interview, you can find the full link on our blog page!
