These students are WINNERS!!! They are winners to me every day...but on April 25th, they proved themselves to be winners at the state level! Nine AES tech team members traveled with their families to compete in the state technology competition. They each represented our school with such class! They were polite and professional in their conversations with the judges. I was proud even before the awards program began!
I told the students before we left for competition that it was highly unlikely and probably impossible for all of us to win, but that if someone from our team won something, we would all be excited that our school had a winner. They proved me wrong that day. THEY ALL WON A PRIZE AT STATE! That has never happened to an AES tech team! Wow. I knew their projects were great. They knew their projects were great. We are so thankful that they judges also recognized the exceptional quality of the hard work and effort these students used in created their tech projects. What a great day!
Lily won 2nd place for her Keynote about Walt Disney.
