The Fishers High Scholl Robotics Team is headed for the world championships in Texas after winning the Indiana State Title. This robotics team has been around for 10 years.
This team has 52 students, led by Engineering Teacher Jeff Fronius and nine mentors from the community. Their winning robot weighs 125 pounds and includes two cameras, nine sensors and a pivoting elevator with a pneumatic intake. Two students are needed to drive the robot. Additionally, the students on the team support other teams throughout HSE Schools at the junior high, intermediate, and elementary levels. They also host summer camps for the community through the City of Fishers Parks Department.
The group was honored Wednesday at the HSE School Board meeting as a Snapshot of Success.
