Team Group Photo.

The 308 Monsters Robotics team, established in 1999, is a group of high school students who participate in the FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC) and in the Oakland County Competitive Robotics Association (OCCRA). The 308 Monsters team spends many hours designing, building, and testing their robot in preparation for FRC.

We offer hands-on experiences and the opportunity to develop valuable life skills. Our team is dedicated to providing students with first-hand experience in designing, building, and programming robots. Our focus on teamwork, communication, problem-solving, and leadership helps students develop important life skills that can give students the head start on careers. As an FRC team, we are committed to excellence in all that we do and are dedicated to helping students achieve their full potential. Join the 308 Robotics Team today and discover the many benefits of being a Monster!
