Team CHAOS is an organization that brings together students, teachers, parents, mentors and sponsors to encourage students to gain greater skills and interests in the areas of science, math, engineering and other fields that involve technology. The team participates in FIRST Robotics activities to inspire these outcomes while spreading the concept of Gracious Professionalism.

FIRST Robotics is used as a motivating tool to accomplish the following:
1.Students gain a greater appreciation for careers related to science, math engineering and technology (STEM).
2.Sponsors become more aware of skills and processes gained by students at Manchester Central High School.
3.Students gain an appreciation for community service, leadership, communication and organization.
4.Those involved with our team practice and spread the concept of Gracious Professionalism.
5.Students apply their skills and knowledge to take advantage of learning opportunities that are open to them.

C.H.A.O.S. is a tradition that over a hundred students have become a part of during their high school career. The impact C.H.A.O.S. makes on students' futures are clear when nearly 100% of the past 3 years' graduating seniors are persuing science and technology degrees. There are many C.H.A.O.S. alumni who come back to mentor younger generations or mentor teams in their own area. We believe it's important to honor all the C.H.A.O.S. alumni and recognize those who come back to the team and show that after many years, green and orange will never clash.
