Our Goals
We aim to have all of our teams and students go to the VRC World Championships this year, and for one of them to win. We also aim to have the HPMS VEX Robotics program be a fun and educational experience for all students in it.
Why Is Our Program Special?
Our school is located in a high poverty neighborhood, and our robotics program is sharing some of that poverty. We get little to no funding from the school, but we still make it to state championships. We use parts that have likely been used years before, and we still do well. The only funding we get is from hosting tournaments and getting donations. If we can do better than teams that get hundreds and likely thousands from their school, then we have something going for us!
Sponsors
We technically have no sponsors. We have been generously donated products from ThinkGeek, Westin, Trader Joes, and Raising Cane's for a competition raffle, though. These did make us money, but are not given money directly nor do we have a sponsor. We are looking for them, though, and if you are interested contact Susan F.
