Middle school STEM teams compete for top honors at the Colorado Future City Competition.
On Saturday, Jan. 21, 2023, 22 middle school teams from Colorado and Wyoming will compete in the regional competition for Future City.
The teams have been working since September to address the topic of climate change by working with classmates, an educator and volunteer mentor to use the engineering design process and project management skills to envision and design a futuristic city using science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) skills.
Their work will be presented from 9 a.m.-4:00 p.m. in an essay, city model using recycled materials, seven-minute presentation, project plan and through a Q&A with a panel of STEM professionals.
Recycle Colorado sponsored the innovation award which was awarded to Philidelphia Reimagined - Tongue River Middle School - Ranchester Wyoming. Congrats Team and great work on imagining a greener city with waste in mind!
