Students Invited To Join Oak Creek STEM Club And Build Robots

OAK CREEK, WI — The Oak Creek High School STEM Club is gearing up for another robotics competition and is seeking new members to help out, the club announced.

"Does your high school student spend too much time playing video games?" the club wrote on Facebook, "Are they more creative than they think and ready for a challenge?"

Each year the club participates in a FIRST robotics competition. The club designs a robot to complete assigned tasks and compete with other robots and teams from across the country, the club said. The club encouraged students who like to, or want to learn how to build "cool stuff," to join the club.

The club said that it also has numerous other activities that are designed to prepare students for a successful future. The club meets each Wednesday at 6 p.m. in the 9th Grade Center at Oak Creek High School.

Those interested in joining are asked to attend one of these meetings. More information about the Oak Creek High School STEM Club and its robotic team can be found online at its website.
