A Global Stem Community
Build More Than Robots
Providing life-changing robotics programs that give Missouri’s young people the skills, confidence, and resilience to build a better world.
FIRST® Missouri's
Explore Robotics Programs for Every Age
We have been providing exciting FIRST® programs and events since 2001 when two FIRST Robotics Competition teams began.
FIRST® robotics programs deliver hands-on STEM education to schools, afterschool programs, and community learning spaces. Each program offers fun, age-appropriate challenges tied to a yearly theme to help build STEM interest and adaptable skills, preparing students for STEM careers and leadership in a tech-driven world.
Children can join any of our four programs based on age or grade level.
Why FIRST® Missouri Works
The Impact of FIRST® Participants
FIRST robotics programs are more than STEM afterschool programs — and they are way More Than Robots®. FIRST ignites confidence, curiosity, and long-term success. See how hands-on learning today builds tomorrow’s leaders.
