Middle School Competitive Robotics
Our 7th and 8th grade competitive and award winning Team #8886, shines bright amongst its high school peers while competing locally, nationally, and globally. Participating in the FIRST Tech Challenge (https://firstinspires.org), a highly competitive series of robotics tournaments for high school students, our team designs, codes, and builds a robot to compete against other teams, over the course of a year. Students learn to think like engineers, gain a deeper understanding of STEM concepts, and obtain many skills that will prove useful in the professional world.
This program is about much more than building robots. Guided by adult coaches and mentors, students develop STEAM skills and practice engineering principles, while realizing the value of hard work, innovation, and working as a team.
Requiring a full year commitment, this team, this highly motivated team is dedicated to working after school and on the weekends to prepare for events. The season kicks off in September with an opening competition in November and continues through February. Post-season "qualifying events" continue through May, culminativing in regional and state Championships. Team #8886 has advanced into the finals every year since the inception of the program and has achieved many awards and championships, locally, regionally, at the state level, and even on the World stage.
