Innovate Technology and Robotics Academy Competition Team
Ages: Grade 5 to 7 (Middle School Competition) | Grade 8 to 12 (High School Competition)
Our goal is to help our academy students achieve the necessary skills to be successful and achieve any career goal they desire. Through our participation in robotics competitions both locally and globally, student members are able to apply the math and science skills learned in class, as well as develop new problem solving skills that are applicable to every day life.
With the help of our robots, we also spread the importance of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) to our neighboring community.
Core Values
The FLL Core Values are the cornerstones of the FLL program. They are among the fundamental elements that distinguish FLL from other programs of its kind. By embracing the Core Values, participants learn that friendly competition and mutual gain are not separate goals, and that helping one another is the foundation of teamwork.
