Our School
As a result of the establishment of Team 203 and its successes, our school created the following STEM career programs within our school district:
Pre-Engineering / Robotics Academy
The Pre-Engineering curriculum focuses on engineering practices relative to problem solving, conceptual and product design, programming, manufacturing, documentation, and presentation. Applications to these processes include, but are not limited to: 3D modeling, robotics programming, rapid prototyping, conventional and CNC machining, and digital electronics. The program follows the Project Lead the Way (PLTW) curriculum, which provides a hands-on, real-world problem-solving approach to learning. Students oftentimes work in teams, which enables them to improve their communication, organizational, and critical-thinking skills. |
Introductory Engineering After School Courses
Starting in 2017, our high school began offering after school engineering college courses as part of the 21st Century Program to gain credits towards their college degree. Students are offered the opportunity to take course work in designing, machining, programming, and other topics. |
Robotics Development Program
The team has developed an after school club as part of the school's 21st Century Community Learning Center program for students with an interest in learning more about robotics. This club introduces future Team 203 members with technical training in design, tools, machining, programming, and other skills in accordance to our pre-season workshops. |
