About
The Dougherty Valley High School Robotics Club provides extracurricular education in robotics and engineering to students. Our student-run club was founded in 2007 with the goal of inspiring interests in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. Since then, we've participated in dozens of tournaments, won well over 100 awards, and have consistently gone to world championships. We run 3 yearlong programs in our local community - boost, novice, and competitive teams. Boost provides feeder middle schools (GRMS and WRMS) with materials to begin learning VEX Robotics and puts them in line for our novice program, where DVHS freshmen and sophomores learn in-depth VEX concepts in a structured way. The competitive teams are the club's most elite aspect, where members apply their knowledge as they progress through regional, state, and world championships. We also run 2 annual events, which are open to individuals in the Bay Area and Northern California: the summer camp (where Bay Area middle school students learn robotics through VEX IQ) and our annual tournament (for NorCal VRC teams to compete at the regional level). If you're interested in joining, navigate through our different programs.
