I think there might be several Fairfax awards from this event. My son's middle school team won an award for their I-Robot (complete with disco ball), and he mentioned there were others. You can clearly see several BFA Faifax 6th graders in the news story from WCAX, even though their projects were not specifically featured. They had so much fun! He's already making plans for next year. ;-)

Fifth graders Cale, Owen and Chase won first in "edible tower".
Pretty impressive when you figure it was for 5th-8th grades from 8 schools.
No official press release, I've got an inside connection.

The team I referred to above was comprised of 6th graders Andy, Conner, Autumn, and Jacob and 7th grader Alex. Big thank you to Mrs. Young, as well!
