Congratulations to our Westfield Elementary STEAM Team for their successful day competing at STEM Wars. This amazing group brought home several first place ribbons and a special Shark Tank trophy! Amazing work, Wolverines!
STEM Wars, held at the Northwest Ice Arena in Jamestown, is a large hands-on STEM competition and career exploration event for students across Chautauqua County. For elementary students, it’s designed to make science, technology, engineering, and math fun through creative building challenges, teamwork, and problem-solving activities.
The event is organized through Dream It Do It Western New York and regional education/manufacturing partners to expose students to future STEM and manufacturing careers in an engaging way. There were also several interactive exhibits from local manufacturing and engineering businesses and groups.
🎾 Congratulations to Adam Eggleston and Tahner Stow on their 3rd place Doubles finish! 🎾 🏆
