With project-based learning at the center of STEAM, we provide opportunities for students to do collaborative work together.  We call these projects Design Challenges because they push students to put the Core Principles into practice.  Challenges can be designed for whole school participation or certain grade levels. The goal of a challenge is to get students inspired to create something new- a new design, a solution, an idea or application. 


Past Design Challenges

  • Brace Yourself-Biomedical Engineering
  • Blankner Bulldogs builds a Bridge-Civil Engineering
  • The Big Meltdown-Environmental Engineering
  • Creating Dough for Dough-Chemical Engineering and Marketing Challenge
  • Raise the Roof-can your structure withstand a Hurricane?
  • ​The NEED for Bees-how do pollinators help our environment?
