Qualcomm is generously providing support to the FIRST LEGO League (FLL) in Los Angeles for the 2020 - 2021 season. To apply for the funding, a team must meet one of the Qualcomm defined funding priorities. As the top-performing team, the SF Hackers is thrilled to become one of the 2021 FIRST LEGO League Qualcomm Grant recipients! The team receives $500 to support their FLL activities.

The team loves to share their FLL journey. On December 10, 2020, they were invited to the KAZN 1300AM Radio Station to share their experience. The SF Hackers want to thank Qualcomm for their support!

On Saturday, HPA competed in a debate tournament hosted by Chandler. They debated about wolves being removed from the endangered species list and on the efficacy of Truth and Reconciliation commissions.

I’ve been a life-long Southern Californian. After living in other parts of SoCal, I’m happy to say that I’m back in Pasadena for now and living just a few miles from High Point. I went to college at the University of Southern California and graduated in 2017 with a BFA in Film and Television Production. Since graduating, I’ve been working in independent film as a producer and editor, helping to bring entertaining and meaningful stories to the screen. In addition, I’ve recently added voice acting to my list of vocations. I’m a big fan of animation and video games, so getting to lend my voice to characters in those media is a lot of fun!

Our very own Abby S. (8th grader), hosted a school-wide soapmaking workshop last Thursday during Homeroom. Abby is encouraging us all to make soap and donate to the Foothill Unity Center. You can drop off soap in the box outside the front office. Thank you!
