Channel 8 was here to interview one of our 6th grade students, Caden Fox, for their 20 Under 20 Digital News series. Caden was a semi-finalist in the Future Engineers LLC name NASA's Mars 2020 Rover contest! The Future Engineers LLC announced the 156 semi-finalists and Caden was one of those semi-finalists. Students from grades K - 12 received this challenge at the beginning of the school year. Submissions were based on the appropriateness and significance of the name, originality of the name, and quality of the essay for the semi-finalist round. It will air in late February. Great job, Caden!
