The Southwest Middle School Robotics team is researching lionfish for their innovation project as a part of the LEGO First Robotics Competition. We are making daily observations about whether or not the Fish Bowl's lionfish, named Wilson, interacts with the different structures we place in his tank.
If you have a chance to go by The Fish Bowl to see the lionfish, please share your observations with us!

Don't Miss Out on the SWMS Online Book Fair!
It’s a great day to get books from our Online Book Fair! We’re excited about a book recommendation from 6th grader Casey Dacus, who thinks students should buy The Wild Robot because it’s a fun adventure about friendship and survival, and there’s a new movie to enjoy!
Let’s keep working together to achieve our goals and show our SWMS pride!
