“I would like to congratulate the Corpus Christi students from the CITGO Innovation Academy for Engineering, Environmental & Marine Science at Moody High School for winning two awards at the Marine Advanced Technology Education International Remotely Operated Vehicle competition recently held at NASA's Johnson Space Center's Neutral Buoyancy Lab in Houston, Texas. This competition was the final round in a series of science fairs and challenges focusing on underwater technology that can adapt to harsh ocean and space environments. The AquaBot Technicians robotics team won the Aloha Award for team spirit and friendliness. Natasha Sanchez was named the competition's MVP. The CITGO Innovative Academy provides students training to become the next generation of science and technology professionals by offering upper level engineering, math, and science courses. A thank you is due to CITGO for supporting STEM education in Corpus Christi and other areas where they operate. PRAISING THE VETERANS CHOICE PROGRAM”
