Southeast Raleigh Magnet High School's robotics team, the Bionic Bulldogs (#21502), placed 6th at the Chicago Robotics Invitational hosted by FIRST. The competition required teams to design and build a robot capable of collecting the most samples from an obstacle course.

After the event, team members spent time exploring Chicago and connecting with robotics teams from various countries. The Bulldogs are preparing to return for the 2025-26 season beginning in September.
