Salmon River Future City Competition

Salmon River Future City Competition
Salmon River junior high school will be hosting a local Future City competition on Tuesday January 13th in the IEN Room at 11:00 a.m.
Three teams (6th, 7th, and 8th) will be competing to compete at the regional competition in Boise.
Here is a little information about the program.
The Future City Competition is a national, project-based learning experience where students in 6th, 7th, and 8th grade imagine, design, and build cities of the future. Students work as a team with an educator and engineer mentor to plan cities using SimCity™ software; research and write solutions to an engineering problem; build tabletop scale models with recycled materials; and present their ideas before judges at Regional Competitions in January. Regional winners represent their region at the National Finals in Washington, DC in February.
