    Itai and Rachel, students from Yerucham, Israel, worked with Highland Park High School students via Skype over the past 6 months to prepare for this weekend's international robotics competition at Lane Tech High School.  The students flew to Chicago specifically for the competition.  This is the first time an Israeli group will compete in this event. The exchange was brought about by the Highland Park Sister Cities program and Highland Park High School, which established a partnership with Yeruchem only a year ago. The students showcased their robots at a welcome dinner on Thursday evening.
