Battle of the Bridges

GMS had students on 3 teams participating in the 12th Annual Battle of the Bridges competition at the Putnam Museum Saturday.
Jenny and Stacy Parsons, and two family members participated in the family division and took 2nd place. Their bridge held 90 pounds.
The 6th grade team of Shay Schehl, Mason Anderson, and Dylan Pankey engineered a bridge that held the most weight in the 4th – 6th grade division, their bridge held 118 pounds.

Great Job GMS Engineers!
