San Marin Robotics Club

San Marin Robotics Club A FRC (FIRST® Robotics Competition) Student Club, a.k.a Penguin Empire Team, at San Marin High School Mike Sousa

Principal - Mr. Mike Sousa
Programming - Mr.

“The varsity sport for the mind,” FRC combines the excitement of sport with the rigors of science and technology. Under strict rules, limited resources, and time limits, teams of 25 students or more are challenged to raise funds, design a team “brand,” hone teamwork skills, and build and program robots to perform prescribed tasks against a field of competitors. It’s as close to “real-world engineering” as a student can get. Volunteer professional mentors lend their time and talents to guide each team. Official website http://robotics.sanmarinmustang.org

The purpose of San Marin Robotic Club is to allow the students to familiarize themselves with building robots, and entering robotics competitions. Student Representatives -
