Our Mission

We want to unite the worlds of STEM and the humanities: technical skills can be acquired and refined over time, but soft skills like communication, collaboration, and adaptability form the foundation of innovation and teamwork.

Our Community

  • The humanities
  • Political science
  • And more!

Our Story

Our Story

In 2023, a group of Keystone School students decided they wanted to create an FRC team to pursue their interests in engineering. That idea has since grown into today's Camber Robotics, which now embraces skills beyond STEM. Last year, our rookie year, we had no mentors, little knowledge of FRC, and worked out of the corner of a middle-school classroom. Still, we managed to custom-design, build, and program a robot by the 2024 San Antonio competition and achieved highest-placed rookie team. This year, under the guidance of a more experienced mentor, the BroncBotz (3481), our team managed to win the Judge's Choice Award at the Houston competition and went on to win the Rising All-Star award at state.
