Good work and thanks for competing with us

Medford Lakes Elementary School!



The Rules: There are two contest categories: 1. a bridge with a pier, 2. a bridge without a pier. Students can also earn extra credit in class by sharing useful tips, which will appear on the collaboration board. The bridge designs that cost the least amount of money and pass the load test will win the pier and no pier competitions. Students may work in groups of two. Students have until February 13th, at 3pm to submit their designs. No work may be submitted via email. Only work done at and saved at school will be counted.
