FIRST Robotics Competition
FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC) is for high school students and combines the excitement of sports with STEM and engineering. Students are challenged to build 120-pound robots with limited time and resources which they will use to compete against teams from all over the world. They are guided by mentors who inspire and teach them. Along the way, students learn communication, leadership, and team work skills to fundraise and promote STEM through outreach.
