My Students: 
FIRST Robotics boasts extensive roots in the Kansas City Area, namely at Olathe Northwest High School. ONW is home to nine First Tech Challenge teams, eight of which are junior teams and one is composed of seniors. The senior team, Ravonics Gemini, has made ONW history by winning the MO State Championships and advancing to FTC Super Regionals.
My Project: 
Ravonics Gemini is composed of students who immensely enjoyed FTC in their junior year and recognized how they could improve if given a second chance at the competition. They have found ways to right the wrongs from last year in order to bring a truly competitive robot and business model to competition this year, winning with their robot and being named the most inspirational team. Please check out their social media below!
