OUR TEAM

Founded in 2007, the Sacred Heart Robotics team has grown rapidly over the years, and now includes 70+ students from 7th-12th grade. Students compete in both the First Tech Challenge (FTC) and First Robotics Competition (FRC) programs, which introduce students to real-world engineering skills within the framework of different "games" released every year.

Currently, Sacred Heart Robotics is home to the following teams:

FTC: 10023, 13981, 16276, 16283, 16886, 16887, 19896

FRC: 2144

OUR MISSION

More than just competitions, we seek to provide...

Intellectual rigor

Students tackle complicated engineering challenges using real-world problem-solving frameworks

Pre-professional experience

Students are exposed to a variety of tools and techniques, including but not limited to 3D-printing, laser-cutting, welding, and computer-assisted design.

Teamwork and collaboration

Students work with peers from all grade levels, in smaller teams of 5-10 for FTC and in an all-team effort for FRC.
