It takes Grit to go from prototype to final design. Zion, David and Jeremiah were challenged to create a working launcher that used mixed forms of potential and kinetic energy. Overcoming a mountain of broken rubber bands, bent cardboard, cut wire and splintered wood, the team developed a functioning model that met all the assigned goals. Congratulations, winners of the Got Grit Contest!

We are recognizing Stacy Latham for her demonstration of Grit in the classroom. View Full Got Grit? Winner Announcement
Stacy demonstrated Grit through an impressive history of remarkable lab improvements; lobbying for funds to get a new module, creating her own modules when funds weren’t available, and customizing the curriculum with her own how-to videos. Her attention to detail and focus on improvements - day after day, year after year - has led to a truly impressive lab experience. Students have clearly defined expectations and her lab management keeps students on task.
Congratulations Stacy and keep up the great work!
