Menlo-Atherton Robotics
Doing the Improbable
Our Team
FRC Team 766 is a high school robotics team based out of Menlo-Atherton High School in Atherton, California. We're committed to providing a cost-free opportunity for students in our community to develop and explore interests in mechanical engineering, computer programming, product design, project management, and more.
Every year, the team participates in the international FIRST Robotics Competition, in which teams from across the world work to build a fully functioning, 120-pound robot in 8-12 weeks to meet the year's challenge. Along the way, students gain out-of-classroom experience in everything from machining to marketing and forge new friendships based on intellectual curiosity, teamwork, and camaraderie.
Although the goal during the competition season is to build a robot from scratch under a significant time crunch, the ambitions of the M-A Robotics Team extend far beyond excellence on the playing field. Team 766 strives to be a pioneer in promoting diversity in STEM by creating an atmosphere where anyone can contribute -- and learn -- in whichever discipline they choose. The M-A Robotics Team strives to maintain a 50-50 gender balance in an otherwise male-dominated activity. A robust network of mentors provides the positive environment necessary for the extraordinary young members of the team to develop the necessary skills to become leaders in the Bay Area and beyond.
