Our Mission Statement. Mind Work’s goals, as a non-profit parent organization for Governor Thomas Johnson High School’s US FIRST TEAM #5841, The Patriots, are to provide our students with the ability to complete the 12-Step Informed Engineering Design Process.  Most public school technology programs take the CTE students from identifying the engineering problem through designing and constructing the prototype.  Our main focus is to provide students with affordable competitive events where they will be able to test their finished prototypes in head-to-head competition, finishing the engineering process at the step twelve test/refinement stage.  Our activities are developed for students enrolled in middle and high school programs.
