On Thursday night, students from Maricopa Wells Middle School participated in a competition to send eight teams to the Future Cities Competition regionals at ASU Preparatory School in Phoenix. This event, scheduled for January 21, will also feature eight teams from Desert Wind Middle School.

This is the first time in three years that blended-learning students at the two schools have been able to work on their Future Cities projects. According to Jacqueline Hahn, a teacher at Maricopa Wells, the project is providing students with valuable real-world skills and exposure to the kind of work done by engineers, city planners, and project managers. It is also helping students to integrate their knowledge from various subjects, such as science, writing, and model building.

The showcase, held in the Maricopa Wells library, was attended by students, their families, teachers, and community leaders. During the event, students presented their cities and answered questions from a panel of judges. At the end of the night, the top eight teams from Maricopa Wells were announced, including: Aoife, Belleza, Hallstatt, Kai Ku’Ono, Mt. Metropolis, Suezcalia, Takoradi, and Tubig. Each team was composed of four or five students.
