General Info

We are excited to invite teams into our school again this year!

The Falcons VRC Qualifier will be qualifying event for the SC MS VRC State Championship.  If teams wish to be judged and in the running for Design and Excellence awards, teams should upload their Engineering Notebooks to their RobotEvents account by Oct. 22, 2024.  This will allow the judges more time to review the notebooks and to prepare for interviews that will take place on the day of the event.

When teams arrive at Sevier Middle School, they will enter through the back side of the school, at the gym, not the front of the school.  Only registered team members and one coach will be allowed to pit, area around the gym floor, tables will be set up and labled with team numbers.  All other people associated with the teams including parents, siblings, and other spectators must remain in the stands or hallway.

As of right now we plan to offer lunch, and snacks throughout the day.
