Fort Couch team wins STEM challenge, advances to states

A team of Fort Couch Middle School students placed first in the sixth-through-eighth-grade division at the regional STEM Design Challenge March 26.
Eighth-graders Carlee Santel, Tyler McClintock-Comeaux, Eitan Schwartz and Yuhong Shi now qualify to compete in the state-level competition
Sponsored by Thermo Fisher Scientific, the STEM Design Challenge tasks teams of students in fourth through eighth grades with designing and building a prototype using recyclable materials or K’Nex pieces. Each team must also create and submit a design notebook and a blueprint.
“The STEM Design Challenge encourages students to collaborate as they apply the engineering design process to accomplish a given goal,” Jason O’Roark, gifted education teacher, said. “This year the students enabled homes to only heat rooms that contained people, thus saving energy and helping the environment.”
