#OurStoriesCRCSD - Metro

SCHOOL YEAR 2018-19



"Metro robotics has taught me that if I can think of it, it's possible to do it." - Sammy-12th Grader. He saved up $ to buy a 3-D printer, then designed & constructed these wheels and coded this old RC chassis. "I love robotics because I can express my mind in hardware use."
Metro H.S. art students have been creating door covers for the African American Museum of Iowa in celebration of Women's History Month. See the impact of creating art for our community matters. #OurStoriesCRCSD@CRMetroHigh African American Museum Of Iowa

A mainstay at #OurStoriesCRCSD Metro High School is Tim Wright. "At the end of the day, making sure that all students succeed is what keeps my fire burning." Thanks for all you do Tim! #WeAreCRCSD
