Written and Photographed by Nancy Clover
The Nor’Easter Robotics Tournament is like the Super Bowl of robotics!
Sixteen of the region’s top robotics teams are battling it out in a showdown of brains, bots, and excitement, hosted by Melrose High Robotics Team, Red Hawk Robotics and the Revere High NEUTRONS. These teams are competing in the robotics game, REEFSCAPE, with a challenge themed around the ocean, bringing a perfect storm of innovation, engineering and teamwork to Melrose.
Robotics isn’t just about building machines — it’s about building minds. Students gain skills in problem-solving, creativity, critical thinking, and collaboration. These experiences boost confidence, teach real-world problem-solving, and prepare them for future academic and career opportunities.
