We are a high school robotics competition team in Monument, Colorado comprised of 9th - 12th grade students from D38. We compete in the FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC) - an international competition comprised of over 3,500 teams in 32 countries. We provide advanced experiential learning opportunities for our students in a fast-paced, fun, and engaging environment lead by industry mentors, all volunteers.  We design, fabricate, and build large, fast industrial-sized robots (approximately 150 pounds) to compete in a 3-on-3 game played on a field that's slightly smaller than a competition basketball court.  But don't let that intimidate you - all students are welcome to join us, no experience necessary!

True to the spirit of FIRST, we don't use students to build robots, we use robots to build students. Our emphasis is to provide opportunities in a wide variety of disciplines for our students. While competition robots may be our primary "product", similar to a business, we rely on many other specialties in order to function as a cohesive unit. These include lots of skills / focus areas that many people would not typically associate with robots - such as marketing, photography, grants & fundraising, videography & editing, carpentry, machining, and many more!

Our program began in 2011 when two former students (Clark Pappas and Emily Ferdette) pitched the concept to the LPSD School Board.  Originally called "Aperture Robotics", our team was born and competed for the first time as a rookie team in the 2012 season (titled "Rebound Rumble") where we won the Rookie Inspiration Award.  After the 2013 season ("Ultimate Ascent"), the team was rebranded to "Bearbotics".  The upcoming 2027 competition season "Canopy BIOCORE" will be our 16th season in FRC.
