6th Grade's Annual Solar Car Race

6/1/2018

The annual 6^th Grade Solar Car Race was held last Friday, May 25^th, on the Lower School Basketball Courts, making for an adrenaline-filled day before the long weekend.

Students in the 6^th grade have been working diligently on designing, testing, re-designing, and perfecting their solar cars within the classroom for the past five weeks. This project is the culmination of a study unit on renewable energy. It was a great afternoon with fast cars and enthusiastic students!

First Place: Starry Ferrari – Maddie Jones ’24, Katie Small ’24 , & Piper Porter ’24
Second Place: Solar Kart – Brady Fernandes ’24, Harrison Felipe ’24, & Arnav Pathak ’24
Third Place: Godspeed – Jack Shtrum ’24, Alex Bai ’24, & Parker Chodorow ’24
