Lakota Robotics

Help Build the Next Generation of Innovators

We are building a real-world training environment where students gain hands-on innovation, design, and manufacturing experience using industry-grade tools.

Hands-on STEM

Lakota Robotics is a community-based STEM education program located at the Paul George STEM Center in Liberty Township, Ohio. We proudly represent students from more than 14 school districts across Greater Cincinnati and provide hands-on robotics, engineering, and technology experiences for students in grades 4–12.

Our Mission

At Lakota Robotics our mission is to inspire young people to pursue careers in science and technology using a unique and fun learning experience in an environment that fosters creativity and models those careers.

We engage young people and equip them with skills necessary to become confident, responsible, productive individuals prepared to make a meaningful contribution in the world and motivated to improve the lives of others.

FIRST®

FIRST® is a global nonprofit that inspires students through hands-on robotics competitions. Lakota Robotics offers two FIRST programs at no cost to students.

FIRST LEGO League (grades 2–6) teams build and program LEGO® robots, while our FIRST Robotics Competition (grades 7–12) team designs, builds, and programs a full-scale robot during a six-week build season.

Both programs are mentor-led and focus on leadership, problem-solving, and teamwork.
