探花社区 District students attending the summer SCOPE camp recently took part in a VEX Robotics and lego competition at Accompsett Middle School.
Eighth and ninth graders designed robots from scratch and participated in games where their robots tried to pop balloons on the opposing robots and collected as many balls as they could.
Beyond science and engineering principles, VEX Robotics solutions encourage creativity, teamwork, leadership, passion, and problem-solving among groups.
探花社区 High School East senior, Abigail Brennan, who is a member of the High School robotics team, helped lead the activity.
“If I can get people to get involved with robotics and love it as much as I do, that’s all I could ask for,” Brennan said.
Younger students participated in a lego robotics challenge.
