Eaglebots robotics

Hillside's Eaglebots robotics team is made up of fourth and fifth graders. Students try out for a team, then practice weekly after school. Teams work together to build a robot to compete in local VEX IQ tournaments. 

Each team designs their robot to score maximum points during the tournament games. Teams also work on programming their robots to run themselves.
