“Where are tomorrow’s inventors, tomorrow’s engineers? Where are tomorrow’s technological trouble-shooters and scientists?
Where are tomorrow’s out of the box thinkers? They are RIGHT HERE TODAY!
Remember you are already winners! Be proud of yourselves!"

Highlights of the 2008 Northeast Championship

Students

Nature is on the go	Getting ready at the starting line	Proud car designers	Congratulations!
Cars racing down the track	Meals on wheels	Last minute repairs	Taking a break from racing in the heat by trying out a pedal- powered grain grinder

“This is a teacher’s dream!  Having students design and build a model solar car for competition is highly engaging and
challenges kids to put their learning to practical use. Kids develop teamwork and problem solving abilities,
investigate environmental issues, gain hands-on engineering skills, and use principles of science and math
to get the fastest, most interesting, and best crafted vehicle possible." ~ Susan Reyes

“The Junior Solar Sprint program allows students to explore scientific concepts and technologies that can help our country address issues of global climate change, reduce air and water pollution, and reduce our dependence on foreign sources of fuel. It our sincerest hope that programs such as JSS provide opportunities for these students to become informed and pro-active citizens, infused with a team-spirit approach to face the challenges that lie ahead with dignity and resourcefulness.” ~ Arianna Alexsandra Collins
