At Cape Robotics, we recognize the value of sportsmanship and collaboration. While the overarching goal of the robotics team is to win competitions and awards, it is also important to foster inter-school relations. To accomplish this goal, Cape Robotics always competes with class; whether we win or lose, a handshake always ends the match. For us, having fun and building relationships is as important as any award.

In Cape Robotics, we strive for achievement. Our program works with the community to enrich learning through student-driven projects and first-hand STEM experience. Working alongside volunteer engineers, students are able to discover, experiment, and thrive in a collaborative environment. This dedication to quality is what makes Cape Robotics both fun and educational.
