FIRST Technical Challenge

FIRST Tech Challenge (FTC) is a robotics competition designed for students in grades 7-12. In this challenge, teams of up to 15 students design, build, and program robots to compete in an alliance format against other teams. We are unique in that our program focuses exclusively on middle school (7th and 8th). FIRST Tech Challenge provides a supportive and inclusive environment where students can grow both technically and personally, preparing them for future careers and life challenges. Students gain hands-on experience in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM), which helps them develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills, including applying the engineering design process.
