The Harmony School Rocketry Club is part of 100 national finalists to take part in the American Rocketry Challenge.
PUBLISHED 8:45 PM CDT May. 12, 2022AUSTIN, Texas — Rocketry Club president and Harmony School of Endeavor senior, Ethan Chandra, says his two TARK teams are ready for lift-off.
The duo is part of 100 national finalists heading just outside the nation’s capital to take part in the American Rocketry Challenge. Pride, $100,000 in prizes, a NASA workshop and a trip to London for the international finals are all on the line. It’s an amazing accomplishment and, for many of these students, a chance to reach for the stars. A Pew Research Center study last year shows only one-third of minority groups make up STEM related jobs. Therefore, programs like these offer the hands-on opportunities Harmony School’s Amy Chankin says are vital to increasing gender, racial and ethnic diversity in this workspace.
“They know that this is the future and our job force is moving in that direction,” Chankin said. “They want to be able to experience it young and apply it in the future.”
