In November 23, 2013, a Robotics team from the Academy of Multilingual Immersion Studies (AMIS) participated in a regional First Lego League Robotics competition. Coached by members of the SHPE Cincinnati chapter and coordinated by Dr. Victor Marrero from GE Aviation, the ”AMIS Spartan Warriors” team did an excellent job by finishing top 4 out of 16 teams, during the robot elimination tournament. It was a great effort by the students and coaches. A special “thank you” goes to Oscar Morataya, Homero Gonzalez, Jose Borrero Vega, Rebecca Schmidt, and teacher Maria Lang for all their help, dedication and effort for the last several months leading toward the tournament. The success of the team could not have happened without their time and talents given to the students. We are very happy to announce that Cindy Arroyo is joining the Executive Board of SHPE Cincinnati as a Vice President of Operations.
Cindy was born and raised in Puerto Rico. She later attended the Georgia Institute of Technology, where she received a degree in Mechanical Engineering in 2004.
