The McDonogh Robotics Team was established during the 2012-2013 school year. Led by teacher Kim Smith, the team proved very successful in its first year, winning the Rookie All Star award and competing in the World’s Competition in St. Louis, MO. The team continued to grow with the opening of the Fader Innovation Center in 2016, giving members the tools and space they needed to be even more successful. The robot arm displayed here is from the 2015 competition robot. The Robotics Team has left a lasting impression on alumni and faculty alike, such that this robotic arm served as ring bearer in an alumni wedding on March 14, 2015. The robot’s arm is currently displayed in the Fader Innovation Center along with a photo of the robot with the happy couple.
