FIRST Robotics Competition

 

“Introduces younger students to real-world engineering challenges by building LEGO-based robots to complete tasks on a thematic playing surface. FLL teams, guided by their imaginations and adult coaches, discover exciting career possibilities and, through the process, learn to make positive contributions to society.”

 

FLL in Franklin

Franklin Public Schools has been looking to expand its FIRST involvement throughout all school levels and grades. The FLL program is going to be for grades 4-6 with each grade level in each elementary school having their own team. FLL is the second level of the FIRST program that will be offered for our students. The first level is Jr.FLL for k-3, after that we are hoping they will “graduate” into FLL, then to FTC, and eventually to FRC when they get to the high school. The key is student interest along with lots of help from parents throughout the district.
