Paul Hennig on 2024.04.02 at 12:47: Mark your calendars for the 2024 Congressional App Challenge, which is launching earlier this year! In order to allow educators to collaborate with students fully, we are launching The 2024 Congressional App Challenge on May 1st. Most students will be in school, which will allow for students to submit apps before the end of the school year. While students will still need to be enrolled in middle or high school on October 24th, 2024, this allows students to submit projects that they created during the 2023-24 academic year. As students prepare for summer vacation, the Congressional App Challenge also makes a perfect summer activity for any middle school or high school student looking to gain invaluable STEM experience while inspiring Congress. Given that students can code apps on any topic using any coding language, and even submit robotics, the Congressional App Challenge makes a great addition to any CS curriculum or extra credit assignment. Moreover, if a student of yours has submitted an application in the past, they may be sitting on a winning application! So long as a student is still eligible, we are happy to accept repeat applications. You can learn more about the eligibility requirements here.
