Our Kids Win BIG!!!!




Trevor M. was wrong on his prediction that the Academy kids would not win the Construction Challenge in Seattle (he said they would have fun anyway).....but, win they did!!!!!! The students recently won the first-ever Washington regional Construction Challenge, earning a free trip to the international competition in Tennessee this spring. The competition tested their skills and teamwork in three challenges related to construction and manufacturing. The team consisted of Trevor Mauro (Sehome), Marshall McBride (Meridian), Troy Buist (Lynden), Chris Whitson (Mt. Baker) and Bill Managan (Mt. Baker). They were the only team out of 13 to place in all three challenges. The team proudly credits the whole class for their success......we are so proud of these kids and this tremendous accomplishment.
