About Team 340
Team 340’s vision and mission statement
Our Vision
Here at Team 340 we have a vision every season of what we want our team to experience.
In our vision our students are excited about Science and Technology.
Through this excitement they get to experience working closely with engineering and non enginerring mentors to gain real-world experience in Science and Technology based fields.
In this vision our students demonstrate the attributes of leadership, creativity, teamwork, communication, and gracious professionalism.
Because of this our students are not satisfied with past successes, but choose to challenge themselves to attain higher goals on and off the team.
Our Mission
Greater Rochester Robotics works to promote science, technology, and engineering throughout the Churchville-Chili School District and the Greater Rochester area. The team will work to incorporate FIRST® Robotics Concepts into classroom activities, support existing and new FIRST Robotics teams in the region, test and design new engineering concepts, and build a robot to compete in FRC competitions.
We will maintain the growth of student learning through school related curriculum. We will continue to develop and implement activities and projects that align with the standards and concepts of FIRST.
Greater Rochester Robotics will aid the growth of FIRST in the Greater Rochester area. We will continue to work with schools to start new teams and work with existing teams to improve their FIRST programs.
Greater Rochester Robotics will host FIRST activities throughout the school year. Starting in September, the we begin activities leading to the FIRST program. We conduct fund raising events to fund team expenses. Our students begin learning activities and development of high tech robot components.
Finally, students will work with adult mentors to build a machine to participate in the FIRST Robotics Competition. The team will spend six weeks working to design and construct a robot that meets the challenge of the competition. In the weeks following the construction our team will compete with other schools in the FIRST Robotics Competitions.
