All across the world, students in grades k-12 are joining FIRST, an international non-profit that utilizes cooperative competitions to teach youth hands-on STEM skills. Moving from programmable legos to highly mobile metal robots, students gain experience in not only hardware and programming, but also the outreach, writing, and design skills needed to run a team like a small tech company.
Our presenters are known as FTC team #10829, Bay Robotics. Starting out of their coach's basement 8 years ago, they have become a staple at Whitefish Bay High School, reaching state every year and even qualifying for the Worlds competition in 2020. With members taking on interests ranging from robot construction and programming, to writing and even board game design, there's a little something for everyone in FIRST!
Mark your calendars and come on down to meet these talented kids, learn about their super cool STEM program and even see a live demonstration of some of their robots!! For more information about this group, check out their website here: Bay Robotics. Hope to see you there!!
Talk will be Monday, April 10th at 7pm, lasting approximately 1 hour, followed by Q&A. Located in the Sugar Maple FRONT ROOM (to give space for the robot demonstrations). You can't miss us! :D
