WHO WE ARE
The COMETS are a STEM-oriented team of Forest Hills high schoolers and adult mentors that design, build, and compete with robots in FIRST Robotics Competition.
MORE THAN ROBOTS
Our students learn unique hard skills, such as machining and coding, backed by important soft skills, such as teamwork and time management.
We also promote our presence in the community through outreach via organizations like Family Promise, Kids' Food Basket, and Upcycle Bikes.
