FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) is a team-based robotics program for youth to gain valuable skills in STEM, teamwork, and leadership. Guided by adult mentors, participants will design and build robots while also shaping a strong team identity.
Who can join CLOUD901's Robotics Team?
Teens 13-18 from any school district or homeschool program are welcome to join.
