Leland Robotics Stay Tuned ...

Welcome to Leland Robotics & Coding!

We welcome everyone who has interests in design, robotics, engineering, arts, and math and wants to be part of a team.

Every level of robotics helps every other level, whether a high school senior listens in to an elementary innovation project or a middle school student asks our mentors how to make something work the way they want it to.

We encourage parents and family, community and visitors to get in touch and see how we can make amazing opportunities for our students.

If you are interested in something and don't see it here, ask us! Like drone racing. Or outdoor robotics. Or skits. Or pudgy dragons.
