FLL

2017 Season
It is part of the mission statement for the Columbus Space Program to share the excitement of STEM academics with the community. It makes the community better and then makes CSP better.

FIRST Lego League teams offer an experience to young people in grades K-8 where they work together as a team to tackle complex problems. With the right support, any team can offer life changing experiences to their student team members and the adults as well. It is the CSP plan to set up the adult mentors for success so they can then do the same for the students on their teams and to also offer continued support. The support comes in the form of open Saturday dates at Marshall Middle School where some members of a student team with an adult can come to work on any aspect of the competition and have extra mentors available. High school student team members will be available on Saturdays. Depending on availability, some high school mentors will be able to visit school sites to mentor teams during the week.
