This past weekend, our Robotics Club competed in the FIRST Tech Challenge Southwestern Pennsylvania Qualifier at Upper Saint Clair Middle School.  In this year’s challenge, DECODE, students designed, built, and programmed a custom robot while fully engaging in the engineering design process. Beyond match play, team members presented their design decisions, teamwork structure, and problem-solving strategies to judges. With 14 members participating, the team did not place, but they showcased impressive collaboration, technical growth, and dedication throughout the competition.
