Kent Denver Robotics Competes on the World Stage

Last week, four Kent Denver Robotics teams traveled to St. Louis, Missouri, to compete in the VEX Robotics World Championship, joining nearly 1,500 teams from roughly 40 countries in this elite competition. All four teams brought competitive robots and were truly impressive in their matches, with Upper School Team Enigma placing third in its division—one of the highest finishes Kent Denver has achieved at Worlds!

“I'm so proud of the growth each individual student displayed this year,” Head Robotics Coach Chris Spielmann shared after the teams returned to campus. “They have all grown in their engineering practices, communications skills, their leadership and their ability to respond to novel, challenging situations. We're all really excited for next year!”

Congratulations to our one middle school and three upper school teams for working hard and representing Kent Denver so well on the world stage!
