Robotics
Welcome to Panthers Robotics!
The PACT Robotics team includes both a secondary and elementary team.
The Secondary team competes in the VEX EDR league and constructs robots to compete in competitions against robots from other schools. The Elementary team competes in the VEX IQ league, which is similar to the secondary, but the robots are made of plastic instead of metal. In both leagues, students learn valuable skills while trying to overcome challenges and getting the excitement of competition.
