robotics club

DeeAnna Lynn G.
            Here at North High, there are indeed robots being built! How this is possible some would ask? Well its possible thanks to the robotics after school club. It’s held once a week right after school in North’s back tech room. The exact day they meet has not been announced yet because the activity hasn’t started yet but soon will. They always all have a lot of fun and build actual robots. Each year, they are given a challenge to complete by the end of the season.
            The challenge is a kind of robot to build, which ends up battling other robots in a weekend long competition at the end of the school year. The club has the parts and the help of Mr. Syber throughout the year to help them build the robot. A lot of knowledge also comes from the “team captain” Matt Cassin. Last year the team’s robot came in 25th place out of 65 teams! If you are by any chance interested in building things and having a lot fun doing it, the robotics club might be something for you to check into and try.
