pREPARING FOR ANOTHER GREAT SEASON!

For existing members, the team meeting schedule and event dates were sent to team members and families through email. Please reach out to Coach Torrance if you did not receive information or have additional questions, scott@decaturrobotics.org.

Dues for the 2024-2025 school year are $700.00, which includes overnight team travel to 3 district events (GRITS & 2 qualifiers). This includes transportation, lodging, and meals. Payments can be made in three installments, with the first due on 09/30/2024 and the final payment due by 12/31/2024.

These fees do not include travel to the District Championship or the FIRST Championship (aka "Worlds") in Houston, TX - we will find out if we qualify for these in April.

Decatur Robotics is committed to equitable access to opportunity and engagement to build a foundation for a bright future. No student will be denied a spot on the team because of financial hardship. If your family needs financial assistance, please reach out to Dr. Sprull, DHS Principal, at dsprull@csdecatur.net.
