The Robotics club is offered to give students an opportunity to have fun and learn about robotics. During club meetings, the students will learn to use the components of the kits to build robots. Problem solving and logical thinking skills will be emphasized. Students will be provided with meaningful, practical opportunities to apply science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) concepts through robotics. The afterschool club will allow for fun, hands on learning through real life problem solving. Some students will have the opportunity to participate on a robotics team in at least two competitions during the year.

The MATH Bowl team is open to all 4th and 5th grade students.

The competition will be made up of four rounds with a maximum of five different team members competing in each round. Each round shall consist of eight multiple-choice questions, varying in difficulty.
