Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

This is an exciting time for our competitive robotics engineering program at WCHS. We have more and more students interested in our engineering program. They all have a strong interest in learning and building competitive and advanced robots. We want to provide more mechanical hardware like specialized gearboxes that will be the drive base for their competitive robot design.

This Swerve Module mechanical hardware will allow them to build a more advanced engineered design, engaging a dynamic hands-on learning that pushes what students are learning.

Students will work as a team, meeting challenges creatively and collaboratively, all while using science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) related skills. This project will be more than building robots, and more than building skills; it will be about sharing our story - sharing what we are capable of doing and allowing us to inspire others in our community that by working together we solve problems and build great things! Please help us provide resources to help us become the next generation of STEM professionals. We would actively promote STEM within our community starting in our high school.
