The MOE Robotics Group is an open group for students from an ever changing list of high schools (this system evolved from our Boy Scouts Explorer Post origins). This year we have students from 18 different High Schools (including home school, check out the pennants on our website). These schools are both public and private (Northern Delaware has a LOT of small private schools) and in different states. The most traveled student was a home schooler from Central PA who joined via our website.

We strive to start teams at the high schools of our members. Teams 1370 at Middletown HS and 1495 at Avon Grove (our largest contributors at the time, my Alma Mater and second FIRST team) are a couple of teams at high schools that used to contribute students to our team. This year we also started a VEX team for freshmen. Our enrollment is still close to our average (~35 students). However, with the local FLL Pipeline continuing to grow, who knows? You know how great ideas in FIRST spread, so MOE2 could be a future consideration.
