Freshman Jackson Them maneuvered his robot through the engineering classroom at Mansfield Senior High School on a recent afternoon, testing the small machine’s motors that control its forward movement, its claw and its lift.  

Effie James believes there’s a way to connect with every student – especially those who have given up on the importance of education -- and he’s sharing his message statewide.  

Twenty-six Mansfield Senior High and Mansfield Middle School students will take their projects to Mohican District Science Day March 22 at Ashland University.
