Each group will receive a $100 gift card from Amazon. Particular thanks to Mr. Arny Leslie who helped the students study for the exam and gave them new ways of looking at earth systems interactions. Furthermore, of the 12 bids available to our students to go to ISEF, our students at T-STEM secured 50% of those spots!! They recorded presentations, took tests online, mailed projects, Skyped interviews, submitted portfolios into drop boxes. Please congratulate ALL students who competed atWSSEF- everyone worked so hard and deserves to be commended.

Tesla STEM High School For Students & Families Links to Skyward, online payments, FinalForms and more Peachjar Eflyers School and community flyers from non-profit, charitable and civic organizations. At finals, Rohan and the other 19 finalists will spend two weeks being trained in laboratory techniques and instructed in biology concepts by university professors and experts with experience in research. Our own Melissa Wrenchey was a recipient of the Educator Award this year. The season is divided into two: invitationals, which allow for practice against different levels of competition, and regional/state/national finals, which are more formal events. Model UN participants must debate and negotiate on behalf of their assigned countries, as well as submit researched position papers. The top 3 in each event automatically qualified for the National Conference in Atlanta in June. Please congratulate these students if you see them! A quick shout out to our scholars who will be representing Tesla STEM High School in their respective Washington Music Educators Association All-State Honor Ensembles this weekend in Yakima, WA. Not only did we have one of our esteemed students take home the GRAND PRIZE winner of the whole fair, but we got two additional bids to ISEF, so now we have a record 3 student projects going to Los Angles for the International Science and Engineering Fair in just a few weeks.

PDF Tesla STEM High School See their work atGiants of the Puget Sound: The Southern Resident Orca Whales (arcgis.com). I am proud of them and of the culture they created. This means that 3 projects from Tesla STEM will be going to ISEF. Their team was specifically advised and helped through the administrative processes by their teacher Mr. Matthew Travis. Four students from the Tesla STEM Economics Club competed in the National Economics Challenge and placed 3rd in WA State! Thank you all for your continual support and amazing work you do with these students in all classes. Congratulations to Ms. Kate Allender and her two science scholars, Evan Kim and Harish Krishnakumar, who have been named as two of the top 300 young scientists of the 82nd Regeneron Science Talent Search (STS). Senior Ateeq Ramlan worked with two colleagues from Redmond High School to develop Whale Watchers, an app to help Puget Sound orca populations. The final competition will take place in Washington, DC, in March 2023. The following students received Honorable Mention awards for the Toshiba/NSTA ExploraVision contest. And, unlike the tech colossus nearby, the "Choice" school's just in its startup stage. This team, Prerana Kota, Cheguvijay Aashray, Reese Long, Tejas Pakalapati, and Arihant Singh, was the highest-finishing second team. Civics atWSSEFon March 30th. Aashray earned an invitation to the USESO training camp, which is an event where top scholars learn from distinguished alumni (including Tesla STEM's own Yuchen Li, '22) and leading researchers in earth science. There were 8 different projects, including research papers, documentaries, exhibits and a performance, and all but 2 of those made the finals round of judging. Outside of Science Bowl, he is an avid science olympian, International Earth Science Olympiad gold medalist, mineral collector (@yl.min4), and clarinetist. Im Sami and my favorite scientist is Wolfgang Pauli. Driving 4301 228th Ave NE, Redmond, WA 98053, Contact Webmaster This is a schoolwide effort--we have support from our admin, our office staff (Ms. O'Brien and Ms. Ferguson), our health staff (Ms. All the best, In fact, there are a few recommendations in your portfolios that I will even look forward to implementing in my portfolio.. Competing against students from around the region, STEMUN students demonstrated skills in diplomacy, negotiation, critical thinking, compromise, and public speaking. Those advancing to the semi-finals: Josh Shergill, Leonardo Ribeiro de Brito, Alexander Potra, Mohammed Mendahawi, Alex Mineeva, Anisha Vaish. In what can best be described as a year of uncertainty, the 2020-2021Wharton Global High School Investment Competitionoffered high school students worldwide something they could count on: the 9thstraight year of collaborating with teammates and teachers, building creative investment strategies, analyzing industries and companies, trading stocks in real time, and learning a lot about finance. In the wake of that great disappointment, Yuchen Li, Aayush Sheth and the other organizers decided that in 2020-21, Tesla STEM SciOly would go deeper, by competing in more regional- and national-level events, and broader, by accepting anyone who wanted to join (i.e., this is a no cut competitive club) and fielding as many teams as we can at each event. Last day of school remains Friday, June 23, 2022 International Olympiad in Astronomy and Astrophysics. The writing prompt was a letter to Gov. About 20% of the people who write the exam are selected for the next level, the National Astronomy Competition (NAC).

Along with the event results below, we had four students run for State Officers for next year and two of them won, Karina Kejriwal and Cindy Chen. I am honored to work with you all. I couldn't have done this without help from the two of you. To see those concepts being applied in presentations just blows my mind. On 27 May, the Tesla STEM Science Bowl team--Yuchen Li,Rohan Iyer,Evan Kim,Sebi Kumar, andSami Badal Khan--survived four elimination rounds to qualify as one of the final 8 teams in the country. Keen to engage students with hands on experiments and STEM-based. Our students clearly set themselves apart with their outstanding leadership and professionalism. You can see their winning projects by clicking the links below. The top four automatically qualify for the National conference, places 5 10 could potentially move up if the people who placed ahead of them dont go. Additionally, of the 75 T-STEM students that competed at WSSEF, we had 27 1st place winners!! They will compete against teams from Indonesia, New Zealand, Canada, India, and China. On 16 July 2020, the results for the FBLA National Leadership Experience were published. 8thplace Sahil Kancherla and Samarjit Kaushik, If you see the following students (our Economics Club founders) in your classes next week, please join me in congratulating them! Winning entries are posted on the Holocaust Center for Humanity website linked here. The top three in each even qualify for the National conference in June.

We won three 1st Place Awards, two 2nd Place Awards, and the Best Teamwork Award. Please join us in congratulating the following students who were recognized at the event. A total of 8 bio club students participated in theUSABOOpen Exam, the first oftwo rounds of challenging exams. It gives them a chance to apply the coding skills they spent all year developing while also learning teamwork, communication, and industry development practices.
