Kids sit and stand at tables and build robots

Since last fall, around two dozen 5th and 6th grade students have been actively engaging in hands-on learning every week in Mr. Anesko's classroom after school. These youngest members of Cape Robotics are the program's newest recruits, eagerly immersing themselves in the world of VEX IQ robotics. Through their exploration, they design, construct, and code functioning robots, laying the groundwork to become the program's future stars. With their enthusiasm and dedication, they are poised to assemble teams and enter competitions alongside students from 6th through 12th grade as early as next year.
