Two LWSD-based teams to compete at state LEGO competition

There are only winners when teams show up to the FIRST ®LEGO® League (FLL) Challenge state championship each year, and 2022 will be no different. Two teams made up of students from Lake Washington School District will be there on Saturday, February 12 to show their skills. 

FLL teams build LEGO-based robots to complete set missions, but they must also take part in an innovation project which involves research and outreach in the community. The challenge this year is titled Cargo Connect.
