Welcome to PACT Robotics
The PACT Robotics team has both a secondary and an elementary division.
The Secondary team competes in the VEX EDR league and builds robots to compete against other schools' robots. The Elementary team participates in the VEX IQ league, which is similar to the secondary league, but uses plastic robots instead of metal. In both leagues, students gain valuable skills while facing challenges and enjoying the excitement of competition.
