Cooperating governments vital to success of communities

Last updated Thursday, April 5, 2012 - 11:15pm

CLEARFIELD -- For eighth-grader Carson Crook, building Lego creations is a means to an end.

"I want to be an aeronautical or computer engineer," he said. "(The FIRST Lego League) is experience with computers and building stuff."

Crook, a member of the FIRST Lego League (FIRST: For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) at North Davis Junior High School, participated in a clash of robot skills against teams from Wasatch and Hill Field elementary schools.

CLEARFIELD -- Gone are the days when seventh- and eighth-graders at North Davis Junior High School searched the depths of their backpacks for homework assignments. The students are now using netbooks -- small, lightweight laptops, bought by grants and owned by the school -- in classrooms and at home to complete and turn in their assignments.
