AES Tech Team Rocks at State Competition


The State Technology Competition was held on Saturday, April 30th at the Montgomery Performing Arts Center.  Ten AES 4th grade GATE students competed!  All of these students won 1st or 2nd place at the regional technology competition and were able to advance to the state level.  We had a BLAST in Montgomery!  On Friday night, many of the families ate dinner together at Red Robin (an AES Tech Team tradition for 8 years now!), we celebrated Alexander's birthday, and we spent the day Saturday as an AES family at the competition.

Each project was presented on the stage at the Montgomery Performing Arts Center.  After a long day of presenting projects, the awards were announced.  ALL of our students presented their high quality projects and did a great job!  I am super proud of each!

State winners were......


Jaxon Cooper and Will Paschal - 1st place for their website about the Dominican Republic


Melvin Benitez won 3rd place for his website about Volcanoes


Emma Buck won 3rd place for her website about the Titanic


Gracyn Spicer, Kailyn Boman, and Ava Owens won 2nd place for their video production about Ancient Egypt

It was a great weekend with great kids, great families, and lots of fun!  Congratulations to all!
