Robotics Club
The Archangel Robotics Program offers students the opportunity to get hands on experience programming robots to solve problems. The Program uses LEGO MIND Storm robots and a computer program that allows visual programming of the robots. Students can learn how to program the robots to accomplish tasks of varying complexity. Students can also design and build challenges for robots to solve.
Students participating in the Archangel Robotics Program also have the opportunity to participate in the FIRST LEGO League problem solving competition. Teams must solve a problem that requires research, creative thinking, teamwork, and robot programming skills.
