How FIRST® Robotics Supercharged Volusia County Students

A recent article in Education Week highlighted the remarkable success of the FIRST® Robotics program in Central Florida's Volusia County, and the results are truly inspiring.

The story showcases how students participating in the program are scoring 50% higher on state math exams compared to their peers. Beyond the incredible academic gains, these students are developing crucial skills in teamwork, leadership, and creative problem-solving by tackling real-world challenges.
