- High School: 10:40 AM

Upper Merion Robotics had an awesome weekend!
Our High School Robotics teams competed at their 1st of 3 qualifiers at McCaskey High School in Lancaster, PA This Saturday. The big goal: make it to States in March!
Failure Management #24483 finished 8th out of 28 teams and made it to the semifinals—an amazing start to the season!
TeaTime #30802, our brand-new all-girls team, rocked their very first qualifier and are excited to take what they learned into Qualifier #2.
Next qualifier: January 31!
Wish our students the best of luck!
