The CEC Robotics Program is in its second year, with four middle school teams and a new high school team. In our Robotics program, students learn the basics of building and programming a robot to perform both autonomous and remotely-controlled tasks.

Preparation for competition gives students the opportunity to develop in areas of engineering, cool-headed performance, teamwork, project management and scheduling, leadership, and gracious professionalism.

In December and January, the middle school teams will compete in the First Lego League competition. In January and February, the high school team will compete in the First Tech Challenge. Go to www.usfirst.org for more information.
