Congratulations to Freshmen Nicholas Junker and Elaine "Laney" Patterson, who were part of the team and the "drivers" of the robot, who won regional recognition for design excellence, sportsmanship, teamwork, and advance to the FIRST Championship competition in St. Louis, MO on April 24-27, at the Edward Jones Dome. The FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC® ) is a program that challenges high school students - working with professional Mentors - to design and build a robot to contend in competitions that measure the effectiveness of each robot, the power of collaboration, and the determination of students. This is a huge accomplishment for these students! Click here for more information on this competition.
