The St. Francis High School Robotics Team, The Fembots, is an all-girls academic team. They participate in an organization called FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology). The team is given an annual challenge and six weeks to design, build, and program a robot to compete in competitions with other high school teams from around the world. Outside of their competition season, The Fembots spread their excitement for science and technology year-round through interactive demonstrations and mentorship of other high school teams and middle school children in their community.
