Team Description
The Agency is an organization of students, parents, faculty and mentors operating out of the Classical Academy High School of Escondido, CA. Our objective is to compete in challenging venues, and to foster the development of skills and character needed to each occasion. The Agency's efforts are focused in areas of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM).
The Agency provides opportunities for students to gain experience in diverse fields of study. Most of our alumni have been inspired by their unique experiences participating in FRC to pursue a college education and careers in science or technology. This year, as we compete for the first time in the iGEM competition, we further broaden the appeal of STEM to those less interested in machines and mechanical engineering. Additionally, The Agency presents its constructions and projects to local schools and Boy Scout troops, enabling the inspiration of students of all grades.
