Robotics Club Builds Robot for FIRST Tech Challenge
Last year, a new robotics club at Innovation Lab formed a team to build a robot to compete in the FIRST® Tech Challenge (FTC). Students named the team the Robotic Conspiracy. It was an exciting season for the new FTC team with so much to learn! They learned coding, teamwork, collaboration skills, and gracious professionalism.

Learn more about FIRST
FIRST Tech Challenge (FTC) is a robotics program for students in grades 7-12 that combines the excitement of sports with the rigor of science and technology. FTC emphasizes teamwork, problem-solving, and applying STEM principles in a hands-on, engaging environment. At a match, two teams are randomly joined to form an alliance to compete against another alliance. Their robots complete tasks earning points for their alliance. This is not a combat sport. Matches are fast-paced and thrilling!
