“FIRST is more than robots. The robots are a vehicle for students to learn important life skills. Kids often come in not knowing what to expect – of the program nor of themselves. They leave, even after the first season, with a vision, with confidence, and with a sense that they can create their own future.” - FIRST Founder, Dean Kamen How has FIRST changed your life? ?????? #morethanrobots
