Our History
Pearadox started off in the summer of 2014 as seven junior high students in a neighborhood garage. They realized that there was no competitive robotics program in their high school, and decided to establish Pearadox. In the years since, Pearadox has been recognized in the community and partners with local companies such as Microsoft, NASA, NRG, and United Safety. As of the fall of 2022, they have approximately 60 team members, multiple mentors and have competed at the world championship the past 3 years.
