Dear Friends of Team 841,
As we celebrate Robotics National Week in our district, I wanted to share a quick update on Team 841’s season and invite you to be part of what’s next.

From our first event in San Francisco (March 13–15) to this past weekend in Berkeley (April 2–4), our students have shown what learning beyond the classroom truly looks like—applying engineering skills in real time, solving problems under pressure, and taking full ownership of their work.

That growth has translated into real success. We placed 7th in San Francisco and earned the Engineering Excellence Award, followed by our first-ever event win in Berkeley along with the Innovation in Controls Award.

Because of these efforts, we’ve secured a spot in the Northern California State Championship—and now we need your support and energy behind us.

Join us at the Cow Palace (April 9–12) to see Team 841 in action!

Come experience the excitement firsthand, cheer on our students, and witness what months of hard work, innovation, and teamwork look like on the competition field.

We’re currently ranked #15 in Northern California and #30 in the state. With only 46 California teams advancing to the World Championship in Texas, we’re working hard to make that goal a reality. Your support—whether in the stands or spreading the word—makes a real difference.

We’d love to see you there and share this moment with our community.
