91社区 High School鈥檚 all-female rookie minority team, Shapoppin鈥 SeaOwls, won first place in the advanced division for their engineering notebook and engineering presentation. ADHUS鈥檚 middle school team, SeaOwls Karma, won second place in the advanced division for their engineering notebook and engineering presentation.聽聽They also won third place overall in the advanced division.
This year there were more than 175 teams from all over the world to compete in two pool events and submitted engineering notebooks one month before the tournament.聽
聽鈥淚 am so extremely proud of our SeaOwls and their accomplishment both in and out of the pool at UMASS Dartmouth this weekend,鈥 said聽Allan Phipps, STEM coordinator for A.D. Henderson University School.鈥淥ur students represented 91社区 well on the international stage and showed the world we are pursuing innovation in engineering and design.鈥
The SeaPerch program provides students with the opportunity to learn about robotics, engineering, science and mathematics. Building an underwater ROV teaches students basic skills in ship and submarine design, while encouraging them to explore opportunities in naval architecture and ocean engineering.
