Apply what you learn!
Students need a combination of experiences, practical as well as theoretical. We at George Harvey offer students a broad range of programs that allow students to apply what they are learning. Science competitions, transportation technology, electricity, computer electronics, construction engineering are all available for students to further their interest and learning.
Robotics!
We have been part of the FIRST Robotics Competition for many years. This allows students the chance to work as part of a multi-disciplinary team to build a robot, program it with computer software, and control it wirelessly. Students use the robot to practice carrying out the tasks in the competition, and work collaboratively with other teams. What an experience!
