GBUSD Public Statement
Last night at our Governing Board meeting, we had the pleasure of hearing an outstanding presentation from our technology students in Advancing Tech Bros! 👏🎮🌱
Students Salvador Rodriguez and David DeMello truly impressed us with their creativity, innovation, and technical skill as they showcased video games they designed and developed themselves. They also demonstrated an incredible invention — a device that can detect dry soil and automatically water plants! 💧🪴
We are extremely proud of Salvador and David for their dedication and hard work, and for successfully completing the Responsive Web Design Developer Certification. Their future is bright, and we can’t wait to see what they create next!
A huge thank you to their teacher, Mr. Viado, for his guidance, support, and commitment to helping students reach new heights! 👏
