We are thrilled to announce the launch of our very first FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC) team — the Gear Grinders!
This new Melrose Team is part of the internationally recognized FIRST Robotics Competition, where they design, build, and program industrial-sized robots — all while learning hands-on STEM skills, teamwork, leadership, and real-world problem solving.
This is more than building robots. It’s about:
🔧 Learning hands-on engineering skills
💻 Exploring coding and design
🤝 Building teamwork and leadership
🎤 Developing communication and presentation skills
🚀 Preparing for college and future careers
We are incredibly proud of these students for stepping up to start something new and exciting for our school and community. The future is bright — and it’s powered by innovation!
Our team has learned so much so far and the Gear Grinders have one more competition left — wish them the best of luck as they take on their final challenge!
Check out the team and their robot in action here: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61587628704449
For more information about joining the team in the future, contact Mr. Lee, Industrial Tech Teacher, dlee@isd740.org
