Ranking in Excellence

It is the first time a Miami-Dade County High School has qualified to compete at Nationals since 2006.

At the Orlando and South Florida Regional competitions RamTech engineering club was recognized for “Excellence in Engineering Award” for its unique and outstanding design at both regionals and also made it to the finals qualifying for the upcoming Nationals.

At FIRST Nationals, RamTech competed in the Hopper Division where we were ranked #37. It was a fantastic new experience for everyone on the team who could go. We’re looking forward to next year in FIRST Deep Space, where we will hopefully have the opportunity to compete at Nationals again and improve upon our performance this year.
