On February 15th, 21 girls on three teams (Angela Shi, Jennifer Wang,  Lin Lee, Emily Baschab, Christine Ji, Kaleigh Beacham, Emma Shore, Hannah Marlene Sipes, Lily Zhou, Hope Fu, Katrina Liang, Joy Gao, Kathryn Bowers, Emily Stevenson, Kelsey Chen, Annie Zhao, Ananya Phadke, Sophia Bahad, Riya Malhotra, Sriya Chebrolu, Suzanne Baxter) took their day off and competed in a TEAMS competition focused on Engineering, Math, and Science.

In the essay portion  they explored a building in their community and determined ways to make that building more efficient, and  answered questions regarding engineering better buildings for the environment. Lastly, they constructed the tallest tower they could out of straws, paper-clips, and pipe-cleaners that would support a single tennis ball. They competed against teams from St. Mark’s, Cistercian, and McNeill High School. Hockaday had one team in the 11/12 grade division and they garnered 2nd place, and the two teams in the 9/10 division, and the  A team took 1st place! Congratulations to the girls on these teams for their hard work and accomplishments.
