Ctrl-Alt-Defeat Robotics
Ctrl-Alt-Defeat Robotics was established in the summer of 2024 as a team of neurodivergent kids who were struggling to find a place in elementary robotics programs. Giving them the space to be themselves with the support that they needed has allowed them to excel. We have won 4 tournaments and 6 awards in the last two years.
