Robotics
Robotics Club is a team-oriented competitive club in which students work together to build robots and program them to compete in events against teams from other schools. Students compete in an annual competition using only Vex robotics parts to complete various tasks against other teams in a two-minute period.
Robot Events host a series of regional competitions where students qualify for state, nationals, and world.
Coach: Ms. Steffi Liaw at steffiliaw@gisd.org.
