As a former robotics student/team captain while at Sacred Hearts Academy and later a middle school robotics coach at St. Louis School, I know firsthand the value these events have on inspiring youth to pursue careers in the STEM fields. I hope you can share the Hawaiʻi VEX robotics teamsʻ achievements with your audiences. Mahalo!
