Locker Shelves

Jankster Locker Shelves are customized to fit the ND student lockers and maximize organization with a two-tier design. These shelves are made to last using sturdy wood and are manufactured in-house by our robotics students. Cost for renting a shelf for the 2024/2025 school year is $10. Shelves will be installed in the student’s locker before the start of school and removed at the end of the year.

If you are interested in renting a locker shelf for the 2024/2025 school year, fill out the Wufoo form HERE.

 

The Notre Dame Robotics Team encourages girls to explore various STEAM pathways as they build a robot for the FIRST Robotics Competition. The Janksters, also known as FRC Team 1967, focus on maintaining a student-focused team and student-built robot with mentors in guiding and supporting roles. The team is made up of four committees: electronics, business, mechanical and programming allowing students to explore a variety of facets of engineering and business. The team is open to all interested Notre Dame students regardless of experience.
