PATH To Domination 9027, 91精选鈥檚 robotics team, was formed in the summer of 2022 as part of 91精选鈥檚 STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) programming. A group of 91精选 staff lead PATH to Domination in conjunction with 91精选鈥檚 robotics classes. The team provides special education students with the same opportunities for competition and learning that are available to neurotypical students.
The team meets daily to learn about robotics, build and modify the competition robot, and focus on teamwork, team building, collaboration, and developing social skills. The team also works together on strategy and fundraising for the team. Robotics competitions are about more than just scoring points; they鈥檙e about learning, building alliances with other school鈥檚 teams, working within a community, and much more.
In their 2024 season, PATH To Domination placed first at the FMA District Hatboro-Horsham event for the second year in a row. With their combined points from the Hatboro-Horsham competition and their second match at Bensalem High School, the team qualified for the District Championship at Lehigh University and placed higher than their first season. It was a fantastic way to end another successful season.
The team’s 2025 season was filled with collaboration, teamwork, and school spirit. The team built their robot from scratch for this year’s competition and competed at the FMA Centennial District Event at William Tennent High School. The team formed alliances with other teams and won a match during the competition. We are so proud of their hard work and determination this season and cannot wait to see what they do next year!
In their 2026 campaign, PATH To Domination won the Team Spirit Award at the Hatboro-Horsham District event, a recognition of their extraordinary enthusiasm, partnership, and teamwork. For the first time, the team was named an Alliance Captain where they were able to choose other schools to complete alongside them throughout the rounds of competition. After competing at the Hatboro-Horsham and Bensalem qualifying events, the team qualified for the District Championship at Lehigh University and finished their season ranked in the top 50 teams.
