What Is FIRST® WASHINGTON

FIRST Washington supports and engages today’s tech-native youth with a league of their own, inspiring them to build on their passions and preparing them to be the STEM leaders of tomorrow.

Creating. Theorizing. Tinkering. Testing. Expanding their worlds. Getting their hands dirty.

FIRST Washington ignites youthful minds through education, hard work, mentorship, and healthy competition.

Just as important, participants are integrated into a fun, team-based learning environment created to encourage their interests, teach the benefits of collaboration, boost self-confidence – and illuminate the exciting world of STEM study and careers.
