Pictured are CES students that participated in the Bucks County STEM Challenge 2023. CES STEAM Club students worked after school to create their designs. Three sixth-grade teams, two fifth-grade teams, and six fourth-grades teams from CES entered the Challenge. Students collaborated and worked hard to research and build designs. All designs have been submitted for judging beginning next week. The top 12 teams from the Elementary and Middle School levels will be invited to the in-person finals at the Bucks Fab Lab!


The 2023 Bucks County STEM Challenge was as follows:

Major environmental issues including climate change and pollution are currently facing our world. Your team is being tasked to research environmental issues, identify one that your team would like to address, and create a solution to that issue. Build a prototype out of K’Nex that supports your solution.
