🎉 Celebrating Our GeoDesign Students! 🎉
We’re proud to recognize our talented 10th-grade GeoDesign students who qualified for the 2026 Michigan TRAC Bridge Challenge (Grades 9–10: Deck Arch Truss Bridge)!
These students developed detailed bridge design proposals based on rigorous criteria and presented their ideas to a panel of engineering experts. Qualifying teams then advanced to Grand Rapids, where their designs were tested to determine the best strength-to-weight ratio.
🏆 We’re excited to share that MECHS earned a 3rd-place finish in the 9–10 division!
Congratulations to all participants for their hard work, creativity, and professionalism. At MECHS, this is what it looks like to make learning relevant, authentic, and connected to real-world experiences. 👏
