CRyptonite Robotics is a team from Cinco Ranch High School in Katy, TX that competes in the FIRST Robotics Competition. The FIRST program provides an opportunity for high school students to work collaboratively with engineers to design and build sophisticated robots to compete against teams throughout the US and several other countries. The program encourages the development of technical, analytical, and problem-solving skills. Students will learn to take a complex task and use critical thinking and creativity to overcome challenges. Although the team aspires to win a regional competition, the overall goal is student learning, growth, leadership, and for students to develop a passion for science. Many students join the team with little or no knowledge of how to build a robot or to use tools. They leave the program often knowing more than some of the mentors, and with a better foundation of teamwork, project management, and leadership.

Team 624's Mission Statement

While continually retaining, refining, and improving the widely recognizable name and image it possesses, CRyptonite Robotics seeks to serve as a platform for intellectual growth in the field of science and technology and in leadership, by providing students with an opportunity to work with engineers, and persistently pushing students to expand their level of community outreach.
