Robotics clubs at the elementary and middle school levels teach students about robotics, coding, problem solving, team building, and critical thinking.

During competition, students must solve a real-world, scientific-based challenge, create and program an autonomous LEGO robot, and demonstrate FLL Core Values judged during interviews.

Judging sessions took place during the week, over Zoom, and students were scored on Core Values, Robot Design, and Innovation Project.
