More About Us

Founded in 2016, Team 6220 is a group of Los Alamitos High School students who aspire to work in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) fields. We pursue our passion by participating in the annual FIRST Robotics Competition, where we have been finalists in multiple regionals and attended the 2016 world championship. To create our robot, we use professional-grade technology, software, and machinery, working directly with professionals in the field. Our team members learn from our mentors and teach each other skills in Computer-Aided Design (CAD), 3D printing, CNC machining, computer programming, business, and much more. Specifically, our team consists of five speciality subteams:
