    about us

    Welcome to the after school Eagles Robotics Program. Robotics is designed to inspire and introduce students to the world of Computer Coding, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math.

     

    The classes will be taught on Tuesdays, and some Fridays from 2:30-3:30 pm in the Robotics Resource Room 1205 (dates are currently being scheduled).  Our goal this year is to provide a fun learning environment for our students so they can focus on programing, team building, and critical thinking. 

    Please note that the dismissal will be promptly at 3:35 p.m. at the Vine gate. Repeated late pickups will jeopardize the student's spot in the program.  

    Meeting Dates:

    All our robotics meetings will be on Mondays.  On holidays meetings will be held on Tuesdays.  Schedule TBD

     

    Robotics Tournament Date:  April

    Questions & Answers 

    Question:  We are attempting to do the moon buggy this year and we wanted to know if before our run, when we inspect the table, if we are able to align the wheels and ensure the buggy is centered in the rectangle.

    Answer:  The referee will place the Moon Buggy back in the parking are if it has been moved. You can ask the referee to align the wheels in the rectangle if they are crooked.

    Question:  We are working on the battery mission. The mission works well when the batteries are clustered together. How will they by place in the rectangle?

    Answer: The batteries are randomly placed in the Battery Storage Area by the referee. They are usually not placed close ot each other. If you have an attachment, try to make it large enough to cover the entire Battery Storage Area.

    Question:  Do you have an extra Mt. Valhalla or hex habitats. We are missing those pieces from out field set.

    Answer: The paper props like Mt. Valhalla, the Terraformers flag, and the Moon Buggy cover can be found online.  There is a Downloads section at https://www.gusd.net/Page/11901

    The specific file for Mt. Valhalla is https://www.gusd.net/site/handlers/filedownload.ashx?moduleinstanceid=23633&dataid=29482&FileName=Volcano.pdf

    Printing it in color on photo paper works best. You can also print it on regular printer paper, then glue it to cardstock before cutting it out.  I only have a limited number of 3D printed items like the fumaroles and hex habitats. They are not easily replace so please try not to lose them.
