These are words to live by. While John Dibert Community School's Code Academy experienced some failures at the Second Annual National WWII Museum's Robotic Challenge, there were a lot more success. 

With a team of fourth through seventh graders, Code Academy competed in the WWII Museum's Second Annual Robotics Challenge. Each of the challenges fit into a D-Day theme, as our team worked to program an autonomous robot to avoid beach obstacles, unload soldiers from a Higgins boat, and build a pipeline to the English Channel. Students competed alongside other teams from all over Louisiana along with teams from Mississippi, Alabama, and Texas. 

A big shout out to the John Dibert Community School Code Academy for both their success and lessoned learned!
