Regal Eagles

CREATIVE AND PASSIONATE.
INNOVATIVE AND DEDICATED.
WE ARE THE FUTURE.

WE ARE THE REGAL EAGLES.

Based out of Bethpage High School, New York, 30 students between grades nine and twelve come together to form The Regal Eagles. The Regal Eagles are a FIRST Robotics team that teaches students about STEM and how to thrive in STEM careers. Under the leadership of our mentors Leon Laspina and Eric Kay, our students grow into creative leaders and innovative problem solvers through engineering, outreach, marketing, computer-aided design (CAD), and robot design. Regal Eagle students gain the skills they need to pursue careers in STEM fields and beyond.
