Summary:
Members of the Solar Eagles are brining home a third-place trophy after qualifying to compete in the The Solar Car Challenge at Texas Motor Speedway earlier this month. The Solar Car Challenge was established in 1993 to help motivate students in science and engineering, and to increase alternative energy awareness. The Challenge teaches high school students around the world how to build roadworthy solar cars. The Solar Education Program provides a safe environment for teams to display their solar cars. On alternating years, we share the fun of the world-famous Texas Motor Speedway or drive cross-country to share their projects with millions of people. The 2024 Solar Car Challenge, hosted by Oncor and Lockheed Martin, is a closed-track event at the world-famous Texas Motor Speedway. Crowley High School instructor James Schroeder and students will be recognized.
