Robotics Team CORE 2062 - The Waukesha School District High School robotics team CORE 2062 (Community of Robotics Engineers) was awarded a most prestigious award, the Regional Chairman’s Award at the Midwest FIRST Robotics Competition recently held in Chicago, IL. This award recognizes a top team’s accomplishments over a five year period. Many criteria are taken into account, such as STEM outreach events, community involvement, and our top-notch safety program. The description of the award from FIRST is:
“The Chairman’s Award is the most prestigious award at FIRST, it honors the team that best represents a model for other teams to emulate and best embodies the mission of FIRST. It was created to keep the central focus of FIRST Robotics Competition on the ultimate goal of transforming the culture in ways that will inspire greater levels of respect and honor for science and technology, as well as encouraging more of today’s youth to become science and technology leaders.”
All of the mentors on the team and the West community are proud of all of the students we have and are impressed by all that has been accomplished through their hard work and dedication. With this award, the team will be competing at the FIRST Championship in Detroit, MI on April 24th-27th Way to go CORE 2062!!
