Welcome to the Official RAID 2537 FIRST robotics team website! Our FIRST Robotics team is based out of Atholton High School in Howard County Maryland. With the assistance of our mentors and sponsors, we design and build a robot each year to compete in the FIRST Robotics competition. We have competed in numerous competitions and have won many awards. Our team's goal is to create an area of learning for all those who are interested science and technology and to teach valuable life skills needed in the real world. Many of our team's mentors have industry experience and are able to help our team members learn as much as they can about the interesting world of robotics. Thanks to FIRST robotics, many of our alumni have gone on to college to major in science and technology related fields.

FIRST is...

"The Varsity Sport of the Mind." FIRST provides a learning experience for students to explore the world of science and technology through building robots to compete in various competitions. FIRST helps students build skills needed for the real world, ranging from leadership, teamwork, organization, and more! To find out more about FIRST, check out their website at www.usfirst.org!
