Congratulations to the two teams from Scoggins Middle
School which competed in the UWG STEM Competition on Saturday, May 2,
2015.
Logan Adams, Stevi Dycus and Andre' Brown |
The competition involved four components: team essay on
genetically modified organisms, design and construction of a passive solar
home, proper application of lab procedures, and a quiz bowl with questions
specifically asked about current sustainability issues that we face in
local communities.
The 6th grade students from team Direct Current; Victoria Coldren,
Ruki Thompson, Blaise Scott, and Garrett Schwartz performed well competing
against seven high school teams.
The 8th grade students from team Alternating Current; Logan Adams,
Stevi Dycus and Andre' Brown performed well and won 2nd
place in the Lab Procedures competition against seven high school
teams. This competition required them to identify rocks,
minerals, and fossils.
We are incredibly proud of these students who dedicated an
entire Saturday to show just how motivated students at Scoggins are to
demonstrate their science, technology, engineering, and math skills.
