Air Tigers is a nonprofit STEM educator beyond the classroom.

Our History

Seeing a need for energetic, nonprofit support for STEM education, in 2019 we formed FIRST Robotics team #8197 to provide mentoring and training in robotics projects. Our team of students and mentors has grown since then, all thanks to the technical knowledge and helping hands of this amazing community!

Air Tigers employs local scientists and engineers as mentors.
