From Future City Coach, Amber Bryan-Dobbs:
Over the weekend 7th and 8th grade Future City Teams competed at the Regional Competition. This year their challenge was to design and build and city on the moon. The 7th grade team won 4th place over all and the 8th grade team won 5th place overall. Both teams also won two special awards. I have listed those below. They worked very hard on this project this year. It's amazing they were able to complete it given the circumstances. Make sure to congratulate them if you see them today! I am also linking their presentations below in case you would like to hear about their cities they developed this year! I also want to thank all of you for being supportive and allowing these students this opportunity.
8th Grade: Ariel Zahner, Arlee Parr, Zach Knapp, Jenasys Washington, Kaitlyn Reeder, Alex McMahon
