The FBISD Robotics Competition is a robo challenge where campus teams compete separately on identical competition areas. Teams work to complete their tasks as efficiently and effectively as possible. The robot is the cornerstone of the competition.Teams design, build a prototype, program, and test their robots prior to the competition date.  Teams compete virtually using the completed robots. If necessary, the top teams complete a second round of competition to decide a champion. All robots must be built and programmed by students with sponsors or mentors serving only as advisors.  This is an event that is open to students that are part of their schools Coding/Robotic Clubs.

Official tasks for the competition will be posted in November.  Below are the rules of the event.  Feel free to review to see what the event is about and how the challenges would be presented.

Round 1: Virtual competition will start the week of March 23, 2026.

Round 2: If necessary, additional rounds will be held for tie-breakers and establishing the final award placement.

Important Note: For both the elementary and middle school competitions, schools may only use the EV3 (#5003400) or the LEGO Spike Prime (#45345) provided by the district.

Thank you for your interest in the Coding Competition.  At this time, the window for submissions is closed. The district will hold another competition next year, so please check back here for more details next fall.

Winners will be announced later in the spring on this webpage and also will have a chance to showcase their project at the district's STEM Showcase.

Please visit the STEM Showcase website for information about that event.

Engineeringpalooza is a fun, hands-on challenge where students team up to build cool prototypes using robotics tools and coding skills. Whether you're making a robot, designing a gadget, or just exploring how things work, it's all about learning by doing and bringing an idea to life.
