What was 8AAT?
We thank you for your support!
8AAT operated from Sept 2023 to Dec 2024. It provided advanced STEM to 4 high-schools, 15 public/secondary schools via our robotics competition and our amater radio community support. We involved over 200 students in our activities. 8AAT was declined funding from government sources however 8AAT persisted and it was self-funded, operated and instructed by its owner.
8AAT will be ceasing operations effective Dec 15, 2024.
Why? 1) Recent public comments against 8AAT resulting in threats to my family and personal property. 2) Five closures of two local (Kemptvile) high-schools due to threats of violence against the students/staff since late over a 3 week span in Sept/Oct 2024. These events are representative of our societal changes in Canada.
We do appreciate the support of the families who provided us with 9/10 rating for the services provided and it demonstated that our approach was successful and meaningful. It proved that the time and effort provided to the community was worth the effort.
Best of success to our students!
