The FIRST LEGO League Explore program serves our students in grades 2-4 (ages 6-10 years). Working in teams, they focus on the fundamentals of engineering through exploring real-world problems, creating unique solutions, and designing and coding a LEGO Education robot.
Oregon 2025-26 Season Schedule

These are the culminating experience of the season, where students get to share and showcase their skills and solutions with other teams in Oregon, and interact with our dedicated reviewers who will provide positive reinforcement. Each of these events include an opening ceremony, team displays and reviewing, robot demonstrations and an awards ceremony. Each team will go home with a certificate of achievement based on the particular accomplishments of their team.
