MAST Academy wins APP Challenge
Please join us in congratulating Kush Mirchandani, Heidi Schultz, and Alejandro Vides on tapping into their curiosity and creativity to design a life-saving app for their Congressional App Challenge (CAC) entry, which won first place last Friday evening.
The CAC was devised by the United States House of Representatives to create a common forum for America’s high-achieving STEM students in middle and high school to compete and demonstrate their coding prowess. Participants in the CAC are asked to develop a novel application of any kind, in any coding language they so choose, on any platform they so choose (viz., iPhone, Microsoft Windows, web, etc.), either alone or as a team. The app can relate to any theme or topic, so long as it isn’t indecent, indecorous, or otherwise in violation of any of the stipulations listed in the 2023 CAC rule book. Our three Makos (Class of 2024) developed Ignis, a wildfire safety plan app.
