The Mecha Files

Welcome to the futuristic Mecha Elite Academy, where gifted teens are trained with a valuable skill set- robotics. The class consists of seven certified geniuses, three kids who think there may have been a mix-up, one spoiled heir to a wealthy company, and two people who were there the year before. Sara, her old school's "usual suspect," quickly befriends Jimmie, a game master, and the punky, spunky Pink, self-proclaimed "alpha twin."
Everything seems great! There are only two teachers, everyone gets to play with deadly chemicals, and the one-person dorms are bigger than Sara's whole house. The "assignments" are whatever robot you feel like building, designing, or programing. It's truly a gearhead's paradise.
Still, things are more than they seem at the exclusive Mecha Academy. Everyone has secrets, dangerous secrets, and the only person who knows them all is an autistic girl who is obsessed with square roots. In the cutthroat world of robotics, ignorance is unacceptable, but knowledge might just prove deadly.
