Crescent Elementary School is home to two amazing robotics teams that have once again advanced to the VEX IQ World Finals following the Southern California regional wins.

At the VEX Robotics Competitions, teams of students are tasked with designing and building a robot to play against other teams in game-based engineering challenges that put classroom STEM concepts to the test. During the process of preparing for the competitions and during the challenges, students are learning teamwork, leadership, communications, and more.

“We appreciate the hard work and dedication of our Teacher Advisor Mrs. Jennie Bond, as well as the time contributed by our parent volunteers to support our students so they can do their best,” stated Principal Shelé Tamaki. “Our strong robotics program demonstrates 21st century learning to increase and strengthen student interest in Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) education while preparing our students to be college and career ready.”
