STEM Teacher Resources and Classroom Robotics Support

Support for robotics and CTE teachers across Gallup, Northwest New Mexico, and the Four Corners. Teacher profiles are opt-in only and are not published without written approval.

This page is for teachers, robotics advisors, and STEM coordinators planning classroom robotics in McKinley, Cibola, San Juan, and the wider Four Corners region. Roadrunner Robotics OSL provides project fit recommendations, kit quotes, lesson plan starting points, safety guidance, standards-alignment language, and grant support letters for the three open-source projects. Office hours are by appointment so we can match a real builder's time to your build window, capstone deadline, or grant cycle — book at least a week ahead. We do not collect student information through public forms; classroom rosters and student work belong in your district's approved systems, not in Roadrunner email or the public site. Classroom visits, demos, and troubleshooting sessions are arranged through the same contact channel, with school approval as the gating step. Use the Projects page to pick the best fit, the Grants page for funding leads, and the contact button below to get started.

Cornerstone teacher guides to publish

Before relying on tag pages for SEO, publish guides for robotics curriculum, classroom safety, NM standards alignment, how to fund robotics kits, File Hub onboarding, Buddy lesson path, Pico workshop plan, and Magic Map privacy-safe classroom use.

Office hours

By appointment - request a support time

Request a support time for curriculum questions, broken servo troubleshooting, grant draft review, File Hub setup, or kit planning. Publish recurring office hours only after staffing and location/remote details are confirmed.

Default: by appointment until a recurring schedule is confirmed.

Join the teacher network

Profiles require written opt-in and a takedown path. Roadrunner should never publish teacher names, photos, schools, or quotes without permission.
