Team 1261 takes pride in the fact that our robot is almost entirely student designed and built. When we win at competition, it is that much sweeter knowing that a mentor didn't build most of the robot, but rather it was our own effort/work.

Our mentors are extremely supportive, more supportive that some would believe, but they are here for technical support of the students. Our main school mentor handles the funds, keeping students on task, etc. Our technical mentors help out the students where ever they can best provide assistance.

Both the students and mentors are an integral part of the team, but mentors don't overshadow the students, and that is something we value in our program.
