About Sphero Robots

All AACPS middle schools have 2 Sphero Bolt PowerPacks with a class set of 15 robots in each. All AACPS high schools received a multi-pack of 6 Sphero RVR robots. Sphero robots are programmable using block coding or text-based as users advance in their coding skills. They are light-weight, durable, and user-friendly so students can get started with their robots right out of the box.
