For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology

The Skyview StormBots are a FIRST* Robotics Competition Team (#2811) whose home base is Skyview High School in Vancouver, Washington. We are an organization that joins students, teachers, parents, and businesses together for a common purpose: to promote challenging, collaborative, innovative, and inspiring technological activities for the students in the Vancouver School District and community.

2009 was our rookie year and we finished 17th out of 54 teams after having placed in the top 5 teams on the first two days of the competition. We are very proud of our accomplishments as a rookie team.  And we can do more this year with your help.
