Our FRC Robotics Team, the Iron Patriots is open to all high school students in our community.

The Iron Patriots is the only robotics team in Stanislaus County and open to all Modesto City School high school students. We compete through FIRST, an international organization that hosts competitions all around the world. The team consists of students interested in electronics, robotics, programming, mechanics, business, project management, photography, media, and marketing. Our shop and team are based out at Beyer High school in Modesto, CA which is a Title-1 school. The Iron Patriots FRC team started in 2012 and has been very successful, reaching the World Championships in 2016, 2017, 2022, and 2023. We value diversity and offer scholarships for team member who are in need. Members must be mature enough to work independently in a functioning shop and be able to keep up with their schoolwork throughout the intense build season. Joining the team is a large commitment and we encourage potential students to read the student handbook on our resources page to get a full understanding of the scope and commitment of joining this Varsity team. This unique learn-by-doing program provides high school students with vocational skills by working with power and machine shop tools, pneumatics, learning wiring, welding, programming, and problem-solving. It also provides opportunities that can be used in the academic world such as engineering design, web design and marketing, public speaking skills, and much more.

Senior Sunday!

“What inspired me to join robotics was when I saw one of the teams old robots for the 2023 season at the orientation meeting. One of my favorite memories was going to Houston with the team and competing at worlds. And after highschool I plan to continue to study robotics.”

“I joined the team as a freshman to explore a possible future in engineering. Over the years, it’s become the biggest part of my life. All my favorite memories throughout the years are from competitions. At comps, I remember getting to celebrate with my team, try all kinds of new things, and mess around with my friends at the end of each long day. Following high school, I plan to pursue mechanical engineering in college.”

“I joined the team because I really wanted to build robots and there was no other place in Modesto for me to pursue my passions. My favorite memories on the team all come from travel team, especially freshman year World’s with Evan and Hudson. I plan to study mechanical engineering in university!”

Addison Cabrera

Addison joined robotics because she has always been interested in putting things together. She remembers when she was younger she got a bunch of the basic lego robot kits and she would spend hours working on them. As she got older she found out about FRC and it just immediately sparked her interest. Her favorite memory from robotics is probably their competition at Hollister last season. It was one of the hardest days she’s had at a competition. Their robot’s power distribution hub(which powers the entire robot) melted itself and the only reason they were even able to get their replacement piece was because a really(like towered over Jill and her) tall guy in a penguin costume gave them one from his team. After High school she wants to major in electrical engineering, although she’s not entirely sure where she wants to go yet.
