Students from LMSD's four secondary schools recently made the trip to Dallas, Texas to participate in the Technology Student Association's National Conference where they competed against the top teams from throughout the United States.
The Harriton, Lower Merion, Bala Cynwyd and Welsh Valley contingents proudly represented the District as each team delivered an outstanding all-around performance combining for a staggering 40 top-ten placements, including an incredible nine first-place finishes!
"Discover Your Journey," the conference theme, reflected TSA's 44th year of work to promote personal development, leadership, and education and career opportunities in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) through intra-curricular activities, competitions, and other programs.
The Rams, Aces, Knights and Dragons once again demonstrated that their students are among the best in the nation when it comes to their STEM acumen! Congratulations to all of this year's participating students and their teacher-coaches!
