From Start to Gold
Robotics kits and curriculum for Four Corners classrooms. We help teachers run real builds with parts, lesson plans, grant support, and local troubleshooting.
Roadrunner Robotics OSL is a Gallup-based shop that builds and supports classroom robotics kits for McKinley, Cibola, San Juan, and Four Corners schools. We design three open-source projects — Buddy the Biped, Pico Lightsaber, and Magic Map — so teachers can run real builds with parts lists, lesson plans, and safety guidance. Every project is paired with grant-ready quote letters, standards-alignment language, and implementation timelines schools can use to plan and fund on their own calendars. Local troubleshooting matters: we live in the region we serve, so a phone call can replace a week of email. Public forms on this site are adult-contact only — never include student names or records — and tribal program partnerships are listening-first, with no claims of endorsement unless confirmed by the office in question. Browse the projects, check the Grants page for verified-source funding leads, and request a classroom quote when you're ready.
