Team 5199
Back in October of 2013, seven Dana Hills students (Kobi Greenberg, Colten Franco, Ben Borovinsky, Jackson Watkins, Kyle Watkins, Steven Perkins, and Camille Perkins) formed a robotics team, Team 5199, “The Robot Dolphins from Outer Space.” The idea originated during a cross country run after Kobi, who ultimately became the team’s first president, read about FIRST in a news article. At the time, the team was limited to Dana Hills students, and meetings were held in a garage. College and Career Advantage (CCA) has since adopted the team into an honors-weighted, after-school class, one that boasts over sixty students across two districts.
Mission and Values
To foster an interest in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) in our high school student members and our community through the hands-on experiences of participating in the FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC) and other events.
We strive to educate our members in computer-aided and manual manufacturing, design principles, 3D and 2D design, electronics, programming, and branding.
