As an FRC team, Wingspan participates in a six-week season each year where we build a robot that completes specific tasks for an annual game. We pride ourselves on being a student-driven team; with our mentors as guides, team members design, program, and build the robots we compete with. But building robots isn’t all we do! Wingspan actively reaches out to our community to share our passion for STEM through numerous local and international initiatives.
FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) is a program for students of all ages to gain experience in science, technology, and robotics which helps to prepare them for the future. FIRST offers 3 flagship programs which all challenge students to develop robots specifically designed to complete a task provided at the beginning of the season.
Valor - We embrace courage in the face of challenge
Innovation - We make change through new creative ways
Endurance - We work towards our goals, day after day, year after year
Resilience - When the going gets tough we rise up
Adaptivity -
Our mission is to impart our team's values knowing that they are foundational skills to the success of our members. We do this through hands-on learning, mentor engagement, and student leadership.
We strive to fly high in all aspects of FIRST with the ultimate desire to be the best team within our state and to be a pillar of the FIRST community.
