Yesterday members of the Hancock Leadership class visited Van Buren Local Schools to learn more about the experiences we provide for our students! A few highlights of the tour were the Dash and Dot robots our elementary students use in their STEAM classes, Project Lead the Way courses in the middle school, and The Armory (our student ran store) in the high school. Thank you to everyone who worked so hard to make yesterday's event possible! #BeABlackKnight
