SWE Keeps our Science Olympiad Connection Strong

11/13/2015

On October 30th, 5 members of SWE-ECI spent the evening at Mount Vernon High School with an enthusiastic group of Science Olympiaders. After a successful first year of partnership where the team took second in state, we returned to the classroom to help kick things off again. Teams were working on their projects like "Wright Stuff," an airplane building competition and other building events. We provided support and helped encourage them to use the engineering design process. We also brought pizza! Overall we all had a lot of fun and the team got a good start on preparing to try to take first at state this year!
