Incredibly proud of the battle bot team to have earned 2nd place last weekend I n our second year of competing! It took tons of work and countless iterations along the way. The talk about next years bot has begun…

When you’re in the path of totality, you have to get ready for the eclipse early.

The future of transport: Engineering design style

It was exciting finally to see the work of our Electronics/Robotics class lighting up the tables!

On Monday, our Juggling Club wrapped up the year with a “joggling” track meet. Thanks to Mr. Muhlenkamp for sharing his passion with our students, and a special shout out to Mr. Hileman 8th graders Eli Zumberger and Michael Wendeln for designing the 3D printed medals!

At last it’s graduation day for these seniors from Custom Design. Every last one forged a vision and worked incredibly hard to fulfill it day in and day out while making it fun. They can take pride in what each has accomplished and how they’ve grown. Minster Local Schools

The amazing script “cats” halftime show is always a highlight of homecoming week. New bleachers meant a new approach to the our path lighting - also a lot of work by a lot of students to build and install. Thanks for the great work! Minster Local Schools

The CNC router project is always cool, though sometimes stressful with a lot of moving parts. In this case, it was exciting watching the machine go flat out when an extra digit was added to the feed speed!

Students in our Mr. Hileman CAD classes are gaining experience with all parts of the design and build process. One of their fall projects requires them to create stools using four square feet of wood or less.

Members of our Mr. Hileman Battle Bots team gave an informative presentation yesterday to the Minster Service Club. We’d also like to thank the Service Club for their generous support of the program!

Legend.

Did you know that about 9 in 10 food and beverage cans are made using a Minster press? Yesterday the Minster HS battle bot club toured the impressive Nidec Minster plant. Thanks to the Co-Op students for their time & sharing their passion for the cool things they do!

The 555 circuit is always a challenge, but this crew worked hard today to make it work!

Student designed and built RC cars… they live a rough life.

After a long build - it’s competition day at NRL Nationals for the battle bot club!

Round one - win!

After a few tough matches we are out... But not before a lot of fun, few good hits, and a breaking a hole in the arena wall!

For the last time, here is Dorothy with the MHS morning announcements… 🥹

The last few weeks, seniors Will and Logan worked especially hard to finish their custom design projects. They can be proud of their hard work, and their willingness to push themselves to do the hard things. Minster Local Schools

When S&K Products graciously donated last year’s battle bot weapon, they also gave us the plate it was cut from. Because the bot’s weapon design was the result of his genius and hard work, Eli is the proud new owner of the coolest thing ever! Minster Local Schools
