Congratulations to our Environmental Science students (Bryce Larson, Payton Uecker, Caleb Kneen, Evan Easton, Randy Bitterman, Kaleb Hohn, Erick Melendez, and Attley Tarbox) for qualifying as State Finalists for Samsung's Solve for Tomorrow Contest! They were tasked with creating a sustainable solution to a problem in their community, and together they decided to use photoelectric sensors to aid in early detection of combine/harvest equipment fires. As State Finalists, they have won $2,500 in Samsung technology for our school and will continue to develop their plan for a chance to become State Winners and win $12,000 in Samsung technology for our school!
