Mission Statement:

“To create a world where science and technology are celebrated, where young people dream of becoming science and technology heroes.” - Dean Kamen, founder of FIRST

Our team members value hard work, achieving your fullest potential and each other. Our main goal is to provide a platform for members to explore, practice, and develop STEM interests and ideals. We welcome anyone who would like to expand their understanding in these areas, and aim to help prepare them for the future.

Diversity Statement:

Four Eyes is a team that welcomes everyone no matter who they are. Many of our team members cope with various mental illnesses, including autism (Asperger's syndrome) and ADHD. Many of our team members are also part of the LGBTQ+ community. We as a team are proud that we are inclusive of everyone, despite their differences.

Morgan Schuller
My name is Morgan Schuller and I am a high school sophomore. I was in FLL for two years. I started Four Eyes with Raini and three of our mentors Erich, Kindra and Tracie. This is my 3rd year leading Four Eyes with Raini Keele. I work hard to help each member on the team to improve in the areas they are interested in by challenging them and pushing them hard in their areas. I work on assembly and coming up with ideas or improving ideas for the robot. CAD is another area I work in, with checking and making designs on the team.

I’m Raini and I’m in 10th grade. I am a team leader and have been for 3 years. I work in all aspects of the team from build to 3D modeling. I enjoy music, watching horror movies and writing. I started Four Eyes with Morgan, and Kindra, Erich and my mom as our mentors to create an environment where we could have time when needed to work on the robot as well as grow in learning about the team and the robot.

I’m Jack Burberry and I’m in 9th grade. I mostly handle building and maintaining the robot. My interests are Math, Science, I mean obviously robotics. I joined the team back in 7th grade because I wasn’t involved in a lot of after school activities so I wanted to spend my time doing something productive. Before joining I knew very little about mechanics, tools, and basic engineering principles.
