We are Straughn Robotics! In the fall, we compete in BEST Robotics at Troy University (and go from there). However, in the spring, we compete in FIRST Robotics in Huntsville (and this year, Tallahassee!). Our robotics program not only encourages future engineers or computer scientists, but also those interested in business, journalism, and public speaking. Students in robotics can learn multiple skills, such as: wiring, programming, wood/metal fabrication, teamwork, and problem-solving.
In Fall of 2023, SHS Robotics attended BEST Robotics in Troy University. Here, the team won numerous awards, including:
2nd Place Engineering Notebook
3rd Place Marketing Presentation
2nd Place Team Exhibit
2nd Place Spirit & Sportsmanship
With these awards, the team was awarded 2nd place in the BEST award and advanced to the South's BEST Competition in Florence, AL.Â
