Who we are.
The SAE Dragonbots are a robotics team from The SAE School in Mableton, Georgia. Our program develops students' skills in STEM, robotics, engineering, and technology through hands-on, real-world problem solving.
Learning through experience.
Students are encouraged to be innovative, independent learners while building teamwork, responsibility, and other valuable life skills. Through robotics, students work together, explore new ideas, and develop confidence as problem-solvers.
On and off the field, the Dragonbots focus on STEM skills, community outreach, engineering innovation, and collaboration.
Multiple paths into robotics.
Dragonbots learning spans FIRST LEGO League, FIRST Tech Challenge, and VEX Robotics.
