MEET THE COACH
This year’s coach is Tomas Morris, father of two sixth graders at Chief Kanim. Tomas is a software engineer who loves building, tinkering, and problem-solving. He’s most excited about helping students collaborate, learn new skills, and see their ideas come to life! Tomas and his wife live near Ames Lake with their three children and two very large (and lovable) Saint Bernards. He brings a mix of professional know-how and playful energy to the Robotics Club.
