The KwarQs — Watertown High School Robotics

OUR TEAM

Our History

Founded in 2008, the KwarQs have been teaching engineering and computer science to students in the Watertown community for nearly 20 years.

We are an extracurricular group that teaches engineering, teamwork, and leadership skills to high school students and spreads interest in STEM education throughout the Watertown community through the FIRST Robotics Competition and local outreach.

Mission control

Making room for the next generation of engineers, makers, and leaders.

Every season asks us to solve a new problem together—under pressure, with care, and with a lot of curiosity.
