Welcome!

Welcome to 2012-2013 season Fembots website.

We are one of a few all-girls robotics teams in the nation. Because robotics is a male-dominant area of science and technology, we strive to work even harder to prove that we can do just as well as any other team out there.

NOTE: No, we are not in any way, shape, or form affiliated with or related to the Austin Powers Fembots.

The Fembots are looking to mentor FLL and jrFLL teams in the Sacramento area! If you would like to start a new team, or if your current team would like Fembot mentors, we would be honored to help! Contact the Fembots at robotics@stfrancishs.org for more information.

What is FIRST?

FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) was founded in 1989 by Dean Kamen, inventor of the Segway Human Transporter. FIRST is a multinational non-profit organization that encourages and inspires kids to study and have fun with science, math, engineering, and technology.

FIRST operates several programs, including, the FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC), the high school level competition, FIRST Lego League (FLL) for younger students ages 9-14, and the FIRST Tech Challenge (FTC), a mid-level robotics competition also for high school students.
