Aperture – Team 3142

2013-2014 FRC Season
Aperture 3142 is excited about this year’s challenge, Aerial Assist, and were thrilled to be able to offer a workshop on Safety to our fellow teams attending the Kick-Off at The New Jersey Institute of Technology on January 4, 2014.

Safety FIRST

Our Safety FIRST Team’s commitment to the education of safe practices in the lab, in the pit, and when traveling is a model for other teams and organizations who wish to ensure that their members avoid risk to themselves, bystanders, and their equipment.

It was a great way for our team to start the official build season and live our mission with FIRST to work together to achieve success.

Varsity Letter

Conversations with those interested in advancing STEM have inspired us to be creative, inclusive, and even more determined to collaborate with fellow teams. With our varsity status we are helping to elevate academics and place it on par with athletics.

Sharing our chenille emblem design for the back of our letter jacket with other teams, we assist others in spreading the mission of FIRST.

Community Support

We are very grateful for everyone’s support. Our successes are shared. With support from our community, Board of Education, school administration, STEM partners, and families we are able to ascend to each new level gaining knowledge, experience, and learn the value of collaboration.

Our Kids Come FIRST team has been busy getting kids excited about STEM with hands-on presentations for all ages, including those kids who are just kids-at-heart!

Our mission of service and education does not stop with FIRST teams but extends to our community as well.

If you are part of the FIRST family we wish you good luck with your build and your upcoming competitions. We look forward to meeting you on the playing field!

May gracious professionalism prevail and the best alliance win!
