In 2016 the Office of the Superintendent of Public Instruction (OSPI) awarded $5670 to Shelton School District. These funds paid the majority of our registration fee. In 2015 OSPI awarded Shelton School District $4900 (funds used for parts & tools). Team 5295 joins 20 other FIRST teams to thank legislators for supporting FIRST Robotics.  Team 1983 Skunkworks and Washington FIRST Robotics organized "FIRST Day" to thank our state legislature for the OSPI grants funds and hopefully increase budget funds for 2017.
