Chesapeake High School's MESA Chapter, Team 944, is honored to host our first-ever VEX Robotics Competition! We expect an exciting, high-tempo, fast-paced day of competition. At this point, registration is officially full. Registration will be considered on a case-by-case basis; contact me at sbuckler@bcps.org if you are an interested team.

Please be advised that we are in Baltimore County - if you go to the Chesapeake High of Anne Arundel County you will find that there is no robotics competition there!

A word about our school:

Chesapeake High School is a comprehensive magnet high school located in the southeast area of Baltimore County. In 2006, CHS became the first STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) Academy in the state of Maryland. CHS offers ten magnet pathways within four academies of study, including a nationally accredited Project Lead The Way Pre-Engineering program. Our partnerships with Lockheed Martin and Northrop Grumman have provided enriching experiences for both students and staff. In 2009 CHS was proud to launch one of the nation's first Virtual Learning Environments (VLE) through a collaborative effort between BCPS, Breakaway Games, TrainingPort Strategies and Johns Hopkins University. This VLE has combined a unique classroom and laboratory experiences that signifies great strides in the use of technology in education.

Our MESA chapter supports our school's vision by providing fun, engaging ways to apply STEM concepts. Our chapter has qualified for and participated in the 2010 and 2011 World Championships for Clean Sweep and Round-Up! We have FIVE World Championship slots: Excellence Award, Design Award, and our Tournament Champions will also qualify. So, come prepared to wow the judges and to compete on the field!
