The CCS Robotics Club teams compete in FIRST® LEGO® League (FLL®). It allows young people, grades 4 through 8, to discover science and technology in a fun, creative, hands-on learning environment while building self-confidence, knowledge, and valuable career and life skills. FLL® challenges kids to think like scientists and engineers. Paired with adult mentors, FLL® teams solve real-world problems using engineering concepts, presentation techniques, and robots.

Your student will apply math and science concepts in order to research, design, build and program autonomous robots using LEGO SPIKE™ Prime technology. They’ll work as a group to overcome obstacles and meet challenges while applying the FLL® Core Values. They’ll also learn to make positive contributions to society and connect with their fellow CCS students, schools, and neighborhood communities.

Each team is expected to compete in a local Qualifier Tournament, where they’ll present their solutions to a panel of judges and compete with their robot against other teams. During the Qualifier, the teams will be judged on how well they interact with each other using FLL’s Core Values, how well they’ve done on the robot challenge, robot design, and how their project can really impact the world around them.
