Description

VEX Robotics Competition VRC

 

Beginning in the Fall, we have a community team open to any student, to
compete in VEX Robotics competitions although registration is limited so
be sure to sign up quickly. Teams are small groups of 2-7 students
working together to build, program and compete with a robot. The teams will meet and compete both in the Fall and Spring.


VRC (ages 11-18) begins September 5th 5:30 - 7:30 PM
 
VRC (students age 11-18) Schedule

Build Days- team members schedule times that are convenient to them in
communication with coaches but this will initially on Thursdays or
Saturdays. The schedule will be adjusted as the year progresses to work for both coaches and team members.

Financial Commitment for the Competitive Robotics Program:

We aim to make the program accessible to all students and offer custom
payment options, scholarships based on sweat equity for program fees.
Participant fees must be paid, or we can assist in finding a sponsor.
Payment plans are available, or you can pay online.

  • Family program fee (covers one student): $500*
  • Second+ student participation fee: $135*
  • Per student participant uniform fee: $30*

Scholarships:
Sweat equity scholarships entail supporting the team through volunteer
activities such as Montezuma Ball, STEM Fair, or facility maintenance.
Fundraising assistance, like seeking support from local businesses, is
also encouraged.  Please request scholarships HERE.

Award-Winning Robotics Program
The cost to participate on the team is $500 per family and an additional
$135 per child. This money can be paid in one payment or divided out
monthly, whatever is most convenient for your family. Scholarships are
available should you need support to participate in the program. This fee does not cover the cost of travel to competitions.


In addition, students and parents will be asked to participate in
fundraising activities to raise support for the entire program or to
assist the team in some volunteer position.


Program Benefits

While the membership fee does not cover the cost of travel to competitions,
it does give you access to the robotics team in addition to other
opportunities including:

-STEM entrepreneurial training
-Volunteer mentoring training
-Student Leadership training
-Letter certifying student volunteer hours upon request (with you providing number of volunteer hours)

Student Leadership Opportunities

The team itself  is student-led. Therefore, students have the opportunity to take on leadership roles.
We
strive to Be Greater Than Average which means we work hard at learning
more each day - sometimes that leads to trophies and wins while other
times it leads to failing forward and challenges. All of it builds
strong character and that, in this humble coach's opinion, is the most
important thing that we can teach any student.
Please let us know if you have any questions!
