Our mission is to develop capable, confident students through hands-on engineering, competitive robotics, and mentorship—building technical skill, professional discipline, and leadership while inspiring the next generation of problem solvers. Then send them off to the older team, The Circuit Breakers, to become even better engineers.
The spark Plugs became a team in 2024, and we began as a first Lego League team and not a first Tech challenge team. We never made it past our first qualifier, and we were only a first Lego league team for a year. We won an award at our first and only Lego league event, Rising all-stars. The trophy is still on display today in the workshop where we now do First Tech challenge
Our first season in First Tech Challenge ended just last year. Our first game was decode. We made it to state on our first event and went to another for practice. After state, we went to a premier event in Cow town, Texas. We made it into the finals and lost at our third match. This was our Rookie year and a huge achievement for any rookie team.
This seasons we plan to do just as good as last season, with new members and more opportunities with events. We are also hosting a qualifier with our mentors, the Circuit Breakers. Learn more about it on our event page.
