New Member Meeting
Today, our new members learned a little about each other by playing a game of Four Corners. They shared their opinions on topics such as their favorite school subject and what they are most excited about for this season. Afterward, the new members split into their subgroups, where their directors introduced the basic skills they will be learning and what to expect over the next few months. We are so excited to see what these members will accomplish on our team!

Our final Senior Spotlight goes to Evan! ❤️

Evan served as our CAD Director this season and played a huge role in the success of our team. His dedication, hard work, and countless hours spent designing our robot made a lasting impact, and we are incredibly grateful for all of his contributions.

This fall, Evan will be attending Fresno State to major in Mechanical Engineering. While we’re sad to see him leave, we know he has an exciting future ahead and can’t wait to see all that he accomplishes.

Thank you, Evan, for everything you’ve done for our team. Once a Bird, always a Bird. ❤️

Our students, Evan, Peter, and Ayanna, just presented the team's accomplishments to the Mayor and Councilmembers of Clovis! These students were able to share the important work that our team does to promote STEM education and FIRST Programs in our community and beyond.

Our close partnership with the City of Clovis over the past few years has been pivotal in the growth of our program and our continued initiatives in the area. We look forward to building advocacy and community development skills in our students alongside our community leaders!

Champs Day 5!!

Today marked the final day of the FIRST World Championship. While we weren’t selected for alliance play, we’re incredibly proud to have brought home the Spirit Award — our first ever judged award at Worlds!

This week gave us the chance to meet so many amazing teams, make new friends, and create memories we’ll never forget. We’ve grown and learned so much throughout this season, and we couldn’t be prouder of everyone on our team!

A special goodbye to our seniors — we’re going to miss you all so much and wish you nothing but success in what’s next.

Overall, Champs was one for the books, and we’re already excited for what next season will bring!

WORLDS DAY 3 ✅ We wrapped up the day ranked 37th after 10 matches. Our drive team has put in a lot of focused effort, and returning to some of our earlier programming strategies has made a noticeable difference! Our robot is performing much more consistently.

We’re especially grateful for the parents who traveled with us to Worlds. Their support has been invaluable throughout the day. It also meant a lot to have our principal, area superintendent, and learning director there, experiencing Worlds with us.

Our team had the honor of competing for the Impact Award at the international level, and we’re excited to hear the results tomorrow and for alliance selection. No matter what happens, we’re proud to be here at Worlds! It's been a season for the books!

Champs Day 2!

Today was a busy day for our team. Our robot faced a few challenges during matches, but we worked hard to fix the issues and are ready to compete tomorrow. We’re proud of our team for staying focused and determined through every obstacle. Yesterday, we ranked 34th in our division.

Our Impact presenters also had their interview today and did an amazing job representing our team. We are so proud of all their hard work and dedication leading up to this moment!

To end the night, our whole team attended RoboProm. Thank you to team 399 for hosting such a fun event!
