The Roanoker - January/February 2015 - 61
Franklin County Public Schools
Want to explore the moon's surface and test your
knowledge of the moon? Thanks to four Franklin
County High School students, there's an app for that.
Matt Brosinski, Darius Hale, Brandon Hollandsworth and Richard Hall - under the guidance of
their teacher Dr. William Schmachtenberg - created
a software application for mobile devices called Lunar
Explorer. The app was entered into the first annual
Congressional Science, Technology, Engineering and
Math (STEM) Contest, and won first place for the Fifth
Congressional District.
Brosinski says of the win: "We put a massive amount
of time into it, so it's nice to see the effort paid off."
Students across the nation participated in the contest, designed to encourage participation in STEM areas of study. Each Congressional District named a winning submission. Congressman Robert Hurt says all of
the submissions were full of ingenuity and imagination.
"We were inspired by these young people's abilities,"
he says. "It is important that we foster the growth of
the STEM education fields, as those who excel in these
areas of study will undoubtedly propel us forward in
future innovations."
HIGH ACHIEVEMENT
Salem City Schools happily
Snow Creek Elementary School received the 2015 Title
I Highly Distinguished School Award, a recognition
based on student achievement during the 2012-2013
and 2013-2014 school years.
The award is earned for achieving a mean score at
the 85th percentile for English and math, for meeting full accreditation for a minimum of two consecutive years and for exceeding the federal accountability
benchmark targets for English and math in the current and previous year for all students and for each
subgroup. I
brought back their strings
program, which teaches
elementary and middle
school students how to
play the violin.
