An invention created by HHS's cooperative robotics team, Team Mean Machine, has been named a finalist in Samsung's Solve for Tomorrow competition. Help them raise additional funds by giving them your vote!
Samsung’s Solve for Tomorrow is an annual nationwide competition for public schools grades 6–12 in which students are asked to consider how science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) can be used to create change in their communities. On March 17, it was announced that Team Mean Machine’s Power Pivot project was a finalist. The team won $50,000 in cash and Samsung products.
There is a bonus $10,000 for the finalist that gets the most community votes so Team Mean Machine asks that its supporters in Camas, Hockinson, and Washougal take the time to vote for Power Pivot.
