On January 24, Sarah Walters’ 6th grade science students competed in the National Engineers Future City Competition in Boise against middle school students from around the state. Despite their competing against 28 teams from all divisions, the judges awarded the Salmon River team the WH Pacific “Most Accessible City: Design that accommodates most innovative systems (transportation/public highway) for a community” award.
Sixth grade class members earned their place to State in the local competition between middle school grades 6-8, judged by Superintendent Jim Doramus, Board Member and Business Owner Eric Hook, Ranch Owner Doug Boggan, and Idaho County Sherriff’s Deputy Jonny Wilson.
All team members grades 6-8 received a tee shirt and a certificate of participation from the event.
