Latexo School District

Yesterday, the Latexo Fundamentals of Computer Science assembled programmable robots and used their new coding skills to practice executing sequences of commands, and solving real-world challenges through hands-on programming. #excellenceisthetigerway

Here are the winners of the Elk’s Hoop Shoot Free Throw  Contest!! They will move on to participate in the Regional Contest in January at the Navasota Rock Gym. Great job, everyone!! #excellenceisthetigerway L-R- River Loew, Jett Bobbitt, Bowen Santa Maria, Louise Humes (Director), Piper Santa Maria, Karson Lehman, Grayson Kellogg, and Judd Bobbitt.

Latexo sixth graders are learning how to code in our computer science course. Students use the learned coding skills to download instructions into mini drones and then get hands-on practice as drone operators. A special thanks to Dr. Cris Salazar for developing this program and teaching our students 21 century skills. #excellenceisthetigerway
