STEM Club is a club that meets weekly
and we focus on science, technology,

00:00:09.019 --> 00:00:14.120
engineering, and math and our primary
goal in STEM Club is to build RC cars

00:00:14.120 --> 00:00:18.320
and race them against other schools. But
there's also other parts of the club

00:00:18.320 --> 00:00:23.030
where we build projects and get graded
on them at competitions.

00:00:23.030 --> 00:00:24.700
Going to Nationals has always been a goal.

00:00:25.000 --> 00:00:30.000
We knew that if we were to go we would be able to be successful.

00:00:31.000 --> 00:00:32.259
This team's incredible because literally 
as soon as I sent the

00:00:33.559 --> 00:00:38.480
registration form in, they sent me the
invitations for Nationals. I sent it

00:00:38.480 --> 00:00:43.190
straight to administration and then sure
enough they came back and they're like

00:00:43.190 --> 00:00:47.690
"Yeah we can't we can't do this it's too
much money". So then two days later I got

00:00:47.690 --> 00:00:50.690
a phone call and they said, "It's good
news can you get your whole team

00:00:50.690 --> 00:00:56.500
together?" And they told us Everett Bank has decided to donate the money for you to go to Nationals.

00:00:57.500 --> 00:01:04.500
When we went in there we found out oh yeah your trip has been paid for, it was beyond like real life.

00:01:05.000 --> 00:01:07.400
It was up to us to try and place this year and

00:01:07.400 --> 00:01:09.500
it was a lot of pressure but we were
really excited.

00:01:10.000 --> 00:01:14.360
Third place was announced and it wasn't us. Second place was announced it wasn't us, and then they

00:01:14.360 --> 00:01:18.500
said Crimson Bolt and I was like
"You're joking!"

00:01:19.000 --> 00:01:21.540
We were all just like screaming.

00:01:21.540 --> 00:01:24.200
Yeah mouths wide open we're like, "What like what is happening?"

00:01:24.200 --> 00:01:28.070
I think seeing that we're not just a good
team in Everett or we're not just a good

00:01:28.070 --> 00:01:31.940
team Massachusetts that like nationwide
we're an incredible team is really

00:01:31.940 --> 00:01:34.100
rewarding for us.

00:01:34.500 --> 00:01:37.500
The students had a lot of success in Texas but none of it would have been possible without Everett Bank.

00:01:38.000 --> 00:01:45.000
And we felt it was the right thing to do.
