Mission Statement

"We don't just design Robots, we Build Friendships" -- R.W. '2017

The purpose of the club is to develop students' interest in Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) through robotics competitions and other projects. Robotics competitions such a FIRST FTC or KIPR Botball foster student's interest in STEM, develop leadership and skills in team effectiveness, and develop a community of excited learners. FIRST promotes "gracious professionalism", where teams compete against each other yet at the same time help each other with problems. The NHS Robotics Club provides a place where all students, especially those with an inclination for technology, can thrive. We hope to inspire students who never thought they could do this kind of work, and to encourage students to explore career alternatives.
