Mentorship

     Because TrekNorth is a school for grades 6-12, we have a unique opportunity to bring younger students into the high school-level FRC through mentorship. Students start their exposure to robotics early; all TrekNorth 6th grade students attend a Lego Robotics course (in cooperation with our local science center) during their 3rd quarter, and they are invited to attend special First City Robotics practices throughout the season where they can see how Team 3754 functions and how we overcome day-to-day challenges. Students who choose to continue on the robotics team through 7th and 8th grade work closely with high school students during programming and build practices and are ready to excel on the team by the time that they are in high school.
