The World's Future Engineers

We are Pioneer High School FIRST Robotics Team 1076: The Pi Hi Samurai. We are a group of 40 high school students, 20 mentors, and toolboxes full of excitement about engineering and innovation. Through the FRC program, our students are paired with industry and business professionals as they learn core STEM skills while building robots.


The Varsity Sport for the Mind

FIRST combines the excitement of sports with the rigors of science and technology. Under strict rules, limited resources, and time limits, teams of 25 students or more are challenged to raise funds, design a team brand, hone teamwork skills, and build and program robots to perform prescribed tasks against a field of competitors.  It’s as close to real-world engineering as  students can get. Volunteer professionals and mentors lend their time and talents to guide each team, making the experience valuable and unforgettable for both the student and the mentor.
