Timothy Pasche

Timothy Pasche, a former physics teacher turned tech-ed instructor, has led 11 FIRST robotics teams since 2013 and is the current lead coach and mentor for Red Raider Robotics. Pasche's dedication to both the FIRST program and his students is immeasurable, and his unique ability to recognize students' strengths is unmatched. Through his encouragement, members have gained confidence in their own abilities and realized that their contributions matter to the team's success.

2025 Seven Rivers Regional:
Sustainability Award

Red Raider Robotics was awarded the Team Sustainability Award, which celebrates a team that has developed sustainable practices that focus on a “triple bottom line” (i.e., People, Prosperity, and Planet) to have a positive impact and achieve long-term continuity. At the end of the 2023-24 season, one Red Raider member expressed interest in analyzing and reducing countywide robotics carbon emissions. This led to the creation of our SAFRA Sustainability Coordinator for the 2024-25 season. With that passion, the student found ways to improve our team's waste management, recycling, consumerism, diversity, team positivity, member health, and more.
