Maps All maps are available here. Homerooms Please do not switch homerooms as we will need to know where everyone is, should any issues arise throughout the day. I will email you your homeroom location on 3.4.19. Impound Times Please see the schedule for impound times and locations. Put your school name and team number on all devices, binders and supplies so that we can return them if they are lost. After the tournament, pick up all impounded devices.

Goggles must be worn by ALL if any wet chemicals (including hot water) are being used. Gloves (supplied by COD) must be worn by ALL if any chemicals (including salt water) are being used.
