Our team, FIRST 3512 Spartatroniks, values education and technology. Our primary goal is to develop an interest in STEM and business fields for our members through competition and collaboration. We strive to sculpt exceptional engineers and business people with our program using real-world machinery and business tools to succeed. 

 

FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) Robotics Competition has been called “The Varsity Sport for the Mind.” Under strict rules, limited resources, and time constraints, teams of high school students are challenged to raise funds, design a team brand (Spartatroniks), hone teamwork skills, and build and program a robot to perform prescribed tasks against a field of competitors. 

  

The Orcutt Academy High School robotics team, FIRST 3512 Spartatroniks, is comprised of hard working students and many valuable mentors who have worked hard to get us to where we are today. Guided by mentors and fully embracing the principles of FIRST, students are responsible for all the work, from the mechanics to the business side – putting in 30+ hours per week on top of their academic studies and other responsibilities. It’s as close to real-world engineering as a student can get, including both the business and design sides of engineering!

 

As our next build season rapidly approaches, we are taking steps to develop the skills of all our new and returning students to maintain our rank as one of the top teams in FRC. We ask that you consider supporting our team as we push to do even better.

  

Thank you,
