TUPELO – A team of three eighth-graders from Tupelo Middle School left for Las Vegas on Monday and returned home as national champions.

Maddie Arancibia, Christopher Wright and William Bell captured the national bridge building competition at the annual meeting of the American Association of State and Highway Transportation Officials.

The three students were judged on a lift bridge they built at school from popsicle sticks and balsa wood. At the competition, they had to explain their bridge’s design and construction to a panel of judges made up of top transportation engineers from across the nation. They also had to see how much weight the bridge could hold. Tupelo’s team took first place in both categories.[LEFT]

Speaking from Tupelo, we are always proud when our students gain recognition. In this case they placed first in the nation.
