Portledge School Robotics

The mission of the Portledge School Robotics Program is for student members to learn how to design, build, and program robots, while developing problem-solving, organizational, and team-building skills. Upper School Student Teams (grades 9-12) participate in the yearly FIRST Tech Challenge competition to apply and hone their skills. Middle School Students (grades 6-8) participate in the FIRST LEGO League: Challenge competition.  Students also strive to follow the Portledge School mission of being part of “...a warm, inclusive community…[where students are] ...inspired to realize their individual potential by developing the critical thinking skills and moral courage necessary for lifelong learning in an increasingly complex world” (“Our Mission,” Portledge School Website).
