Saint Rita Robotics Teams Compete at Nolan
Congratulations to the two Saint Rita robotics teams that competed at the FIRST Robotics qualifier at Nolan Catholic this past Saturday. These fifteen students built a robot, programmed it, and researched a solution to problems that astronauts may enounter in a Life in Space. They competed against 35 other teams by programming their robot to complete missions and by giving three different presentations before judges from the tech industry. Although our teams didn't advance to the next level, we are proud of their efforts and the progress they made during the school year.
A special thank you to Ms. Millis for stepping in when one of our head mentors couldn't attend the competition.
If you would like to join the team or earn volunteer hours by mentoring, please contact Mrs. Burns via email at mburns@saintritaschool.net.
