Who We Are
At the heart of Team Resistance lies a clear mission: to inspire and empower the next generation of scientists and engineers. Our commitment goes beyond just building robots – we aim to create an environment where students can explore their interests in technology and innovation while learning valuable that will take them much, much further than our team. We encourage students to go beyond just robotics, to take their skills into the real world, and to make a difference.
Mission and Values
Team Resistance is an inspiring group of young innovators participating in the FIRST Robotics Competition. This team is dedicated to promoting STEM education (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) through engaging and hands-on robotics experiences. With a diverse mix of students from various backgrounds, Team Resistance embodies teamwork and creativity, working tirelessly to build competitive robots while fostering a love for technology. We teach lifelong and essential skills that our students can bring with them far into the future, securing them a comfortable place in our technology-filled world.
Core Values
- Collaboration: Teamwork is essential. In our world you can’t do everything alone – we encourage students to collaborate and improve together.
- Innovation: We encourage creativity and out-of-the-box thinking. Nothing new ever came from doing something the same way!
- Community Engagement: We actively participate in community outreach, sharing our passion for robotics with local schools and organizations. Team Resistance isn’t just about building robots but building a community for anyone interested in STEM.
- Learning and Growth: Continuous improvement is a cornerstone of our philosophy. We value learning, from both success and failure, and we are always striving to enhance our students’ skills and knowledge to propel them forwards.
- Application: We teach students skills that no high school will teach them, and we challenge our students to apply their skills all across life, not just in building robots.
