Day School Students Participate in STEAM Challenge

The STEAM Challenge recently took place at Foxcroft School, bringing together middle and high school students for a girls-only, hands-on day of collaboration and problem-solving.

Representing the Day School were Elise C.G. ‘27, Clara F. ‘27, Annelise P. ‘27, and Zadie S. ‘26, who competed as The Terrific Turbines. Throughout the event, participants rotated through a series of innovative sessions built around an annual theme, adding an extra layer of creativity and excitement to the experience. Teams tackled five different challenges spanning multiple STEAM disciplines, applying critical thinking, teamwork, and ingenuity along the way.

The Terrific Turbines earned a bronze medal in the math/nutrition/science challenge focused on Olympic curling — an impressive accomplishment and a testament to their hard work.

The STEAM Challenge is designed to inspire and empower girls in science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics, and it was a wonderful opportunity for our students to showcase their talents while exploring the many possibilities within STEAM fields.
