FIRST Robotics – Inaugural Season at Melrose High School!
• Melrose High School is launching a FIRST Robotics Team and inviting students in grades 9–12 to join—no experience needed!
• Students can explore interests in building, coding, graphic design, business, and leadership while gaining real-world skills. Robotics builds teamwork, problem-solving, and confidence—and looks great on college, scholarship, and job applications.

This is a chance for students to be part of something new from the very beginning.
