Team 604 at the Calgames off season competition

Team 604’s student body consisted of over 30 students from 2001 to 2003, up until 2004, during which Leland did not have a robotics team. Then, in 2005, the team was revived by a group of a little less than 10 students. During the course of 3 years, the team has grown to almost 50 members. Team 604’s student body was 50% female from 2005-2006, and they still make up a large portion of the team. The leaders of the team are mostly upperclassmen, but all four grade levels are almost equally represented, and the team works together as a collective without letting these divisions affect them. Team 604 hopes to continue gaining members and introduce more students to the world of robotics.
