GHS Gifted Students 'Engineer' A First Place Win




Congratulations to the following AIM students for their first place finish at the ESSPA Engineering competition. Luke Grysiak, Brian Wallace, Jason Cole O'Leary, Mike Kelly and Awaiz Khan built a flawless, 24 step Rube Goldberg device that launched a rocket, built and designed a WWII style bomber plane that had laser guided bombs and a compressed air ping-pong ball launcher and spontaneously constructed an airplane that launched a helium filled balloon from over fifty feet away. The team competed against gifted students from Steel Valley, Woodland Hills, Highlands, Franklin Regional and other schools in the region. Fantastic job guys! You know, I've got a camcorder that still tells me the date is 01/01/01...maybe one of you knows how to fix it !
