The principles that guide everything we do
We face challenges head-on, never giving up when obstacles arise. Our resilience defines us.
We honor everyone's contributions and ideas, fostering a culture of collaboration and mutual support.
We embrace creativity and seek new solutions, constantly pushing the boundaries of what's possible.
We believe learning should be enjoyable. Passion and enthusiasm drive our team forward.
Together we achieve more. Every member's unique skills contribute to our collective success.
The mission of FIRST is to inspire young people to be science and technology leaders and innovators, by engaging them in exciting mentor-based programs that build science, engineering, and technology skills, that inspire innovation, and that foster well-rounded life capabilities including self-confidence, communication, and leadership.
Empowerment is key. Students take ownership of design, building, programming, and strategic decisions. Mentors guide and teach, but the students drive the robot and the team's success.
From CAD design to competition strategy, every decision is made by our student leaders who learn to take responsibility, think critically, and solve complex problems independently.
From concept to competition, team members gain practical experience in engineering, coding, problem-solving, and teamwork, building skills for the future.
Our students work with professional-grade tools and software, learning real-world engineering practices that prepare them for careers in STEM fields.
Each season brings new challenges, new learning, and invaluable skills developed through hands-on experience
