Washburn Weekly Update
Week of January 30th to February 3rd, 2017
Nuestras jóvenes en Robótica
¡Cualificamos para el campeonato de Robótica
de Latinoamérica! Washburn School sigue su
legado año tras año con estas cuatro jóvenes.
Desde records mundiales de robótica, hasta
competencias mundiales en California, Florida,
Kentucky y Maryland, todo con el fin de
aprender y crear pasión por todo "STEM"
(Ciencias, Tecnología, Ingeneria, Matemáticas).
¡Felicitamos al líder/mentor ingeniero Armando
Cubí y (izquierda a derecha) a Yadzia
Velázquez, Alanis Cubí, Rocío Quintana,
y Tzunami Santiago por sus logros
representando a Washburn School dignamente
siempre!
Hace tres años el ingeniero Armando Cubí
dirigió a cuatro niñas a romper records
mundiales en el Campeonato Mundial de
Robótica Vex en California y las asistió en
competir contra otros países representando a
Ponce, Puerto Rico y Washburn School! El
domingo 29 de enero lograron continuar la
historia en el 2017.
¿Sabía usted que en Estados Unidos hay una deficiencia de niñas que participen en STEM y la
deficiencia es mucho más grande en las niñas latinas?
Los invitamos a que sus hijas participen de la Robótica ya que hay campos de estudios donde
estas podrán solicitar cuando estén decidiendo qué estudiarán en la universidad tales como:
Chemical Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Science &
Engineer, Aerospace Engineering, Bioengineering, Environmental Engineering & Sustainability,
Material Science & Engineer.
¡Preparemos a nuestras niñas para un futuro laboral bien remunerado!

Trabajadora Social
Saludos padres, madres y estudiantes:
Esta semana comienza el mes en que celebramos el amor y la amistad, valores importantes en el
desarrollo y crecimiento de todo ser humano. Como padres, nos corresponde inculcar esos
valores y promover el que nuestros hijos lo expresen sin temor alguno.
En Washburn, deseamos hacer de este mes uno especial y diferente. Estaremos ofreciendo varias
actividades y dinámicas con el propósito de que los estudiantes comprendan la importancia de
perdonar, respetar y valorarse unos a otros. Crear lazos de amistad es una de las ganancias más
hermosas que nos llevamos de la vida estudiantil. Esperamos como siempre, contar con su
respaldo.

Comments:
Bonjour Parents:
Only for students of 7th and 8th grade: Dates for the exams will be on
March 9, 2016 and on April 25, 2016.
The students are really motivated with learning a third language. It is
my upmost recommendation that you listen to them as they practice.
Also, it is highly recommended that they have a dictionary of French-
English so they can look up for words on their own time and seek self-
improvement.
In class assessments I have acknowledged that the students have been
studying and practicing at home. They have completed the work and
have helped each other as well. Keep up the good work!
