Centered on engineering a solar electric model car, the JSS
nurtures the innate curiosity of youth and provides an open forum for
5th - 8th grade students to utilize science & math in a way that
will give real life meaning to lessons learned in the classroom.
This multi-dimensional, hands-on program gives the students a
glimpse of what to expect when doing "real" engineering. Students will
earn awards in several categories and for the best overall vehicle as
judged by the Eastern Electric Vehicle Club.
