Students First

Why be a part of StudentsFIRST?

  • Because educating students should be the focus of robotics teams
  • Because students deserve to have agency on their own teams to decide how much mentor input is okay
  • Because even among mostly heroic coaches and mentors, there are a few bad apples
  • Because FIRST lacks a mechanism to protect students from toxic adults
  • Because students need an advocate, and together we can advocate for students who can’t advocate for themselves.
