FIRST - Jr. FLL, FLL, FTC

FIRST is an organization that aims to engage students of all ages in science, technology, and business. The BHS Robotics Team participates in the FIRST Robotics Competition for grades nine through twelve, but FIRST offers programs for elementary, intermediate, and middle school students as well.

FIRST LEGO League Jr. is available to students in kindergarten through fourth grade.
FIRST LEGO League is available to students in fourth through eighth grade.
FIRST Tech Challenge is available to students in seventh through twelfth grade.

Our team is currently working to start teams throughout the school district to compete in Jr. FLL, FLL, and FTC. We are always in need of students, parents, and potential coaches willing to help us start teams in other schools. If you are interested in supporting one of these programs at your school, please let us know.
FIRST Robotics Competition

The Brighton High School Robotics Team participates in the annual FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC) as team #3707, the "TechnoDogs". In January of each year, FRC teams are given the rules to a game for which they must build a robot. The teams have roughly six weeks to work on their bot. By default, each team attends two district meets. At each meet there are forty teams that compete. There are several practice matches, then qualification matches begin. In these matches, sets of three teams are randomly chosen to be an alliance, and battle an opposing alliance for points. Next come the elimination matches. For these, teams choose their alliance. The highest scoring alliances advance through several rounds until the final match decides who will be the district champion.
What's the best about our team?

We have fun while learning things most people will never know.  You realize that you made it from a pile of parts and metal. You know every part and why it all works.  It makes you  feel like you can do anything.  Now hook up the battery and  turn on the power and  look out! You know something crazy is about to happen.  The action is fast and always changing. "Go here, get that...Shoot it..."   But really, the friends are the best part of this team. We work hard together with one goal: to learn and make a difference in everything we do. We look for areas that we can improve and look for anyone we can help along the way, because that is what truly makes you smart—knowing deep inside you are powerful and have what is needed to make others feel the same. If they feel and do the same for someone else because they learned it from you, then you have made a difference that will change more people's lives than you will ever know.

The mission of FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) is "to inspire young people to be science and technology leaders, by engaging them in exciting mentor-based programs that build science, engineering and technology skills, that inspire innovation, and that foster well-rounded life capabilities including self-confidence, communication, and leadership."
