Chrome Squad Visitors
Last Thursday, October 27, the Chrome Squad was visited by two schools; Mckinney and Sulfur Springs. Both Sulfur Springs and Mckinney have implemented a program of their own which is based on our very own Chrome Squad! The objective of our meeting was for students/administers in both the Chrome Squad and other schools to discuss how each group runs day to day business and answer any questions they had.
The first of the two groups to visit our school was the Technocats from Mckinney. The group consisted of about twenty students , both male and female, most of which were seniors. All the Chrome Squad members got the chance to socialize with the students from McKinney and learn more about how they conduct their program. Overall the program that McKinney has created works well for their school. Only minor changes need to be made to improve the program they already have.
The second group to visit us was about 12 students from Sulfur Springs. This group was a lot of fun to talk to because they all had so many ideas and questions to bring to us. I enjoyed the discussions that we had concerning the work that we do as teams as well as the work we do to improve the entire Chrome Squad. The only issue that seemed to arise with Sulfur Spring’s program was a lack of organization although this can easily be fixed.
Both groups that came that day were absolutely amazing. It’s extraordinary how other students in different schools are making the same effort as the Chrome Squad is in our school. Even though none of the three programs are perfect, we are all trying to make a difference within our school. I loved this experience because I was able to talk to other people and offer advice on how to make their programs better. I realized that even the Chrome Squad isn’t done growing, because there is still a lot that we can improve on. I believe that this visit was beneficial to all three groups, and our technology programs will continue to grow in the future.
