AHSS Student Achievements
AHSS Planet Explorers Shine at NASA Space Apps Challenge!
We’re thrilled to share that our AHSS Planet Explorers team represented AHSS with distinction at the NASA Space Apps Challenge Strumica, held on October 5th and 6th! This team of ambitious young innovators—Stefan Markovski, Amelija Stancheva, Andrea Leskarovska, Nikolina Velichkovska, and Leona Stojkovska—dove into the challenge, showcasing their skills, creativity, and dedication.
With guidance from the AHSS math teacher, Mr. Trifun Karaevski, the students independently registered, chose their topic, and embarked on their journey of app development. Over 24 hours, they worked tirelessly to create and present their project, resulting in a well-deserved second-place finish! 🎉 This achievement came with a monetary prize, distributed among the team members.
Congratulations to the AHSS Planet Explorers for their hard work and remarkable success!
