Escalante High School Students Experience STEM Exploration and Sustainable Design at MESA Regional Rally
On October 25, 2024, students from Escalante High School in the Chama Valley School District traveled to Santa Fe Community College for the MESA (Mathematics, Engineering, Science Achievement) North Central Regional Rally. This impactful event introduced students to a wide array of STEM fields through hands-on, interactive sessions and inspiring workshops.
The rally provided students with a variety of experiences in STEM, covering subjects like Coding, where they explored programming fundamentals, and Machining, which showcased the intricacies of crafting mechanical parts. Students were also introduced to Growing Algae as Biofuel and Hydroponics, both activities emphasizing the importance of sustainable practices in energy and agriculture.
One of the most exciting sessions was an introduction to Building Design and Sustainability, where students learned the basics of drawing blueprints using architectural symbols. This brief but informative session focused on how to design a Healthy and Sustainable Community Center using criteria for LEED Certification, an internationally recognized standard for environmentally conscious building design. This activity offered insight into how architects and engineers integrate sustainable elements into building plans to create eco-friendly spaces that promote community well-being.
Additionally, students enjoyed other highlights, including a Sphere Science Experience that demonstrated innovative uses of spherical displays in science education, and a Solar Telescope session, which allowed them to observe the sun and explore the wonders of space sciences.
For the students of Escalante High School, the MESA rally was an unforgettable experience, blending exciting STEM activities with lessons in sustainability and innovation. Through this rally, students not only gained hands-on skills but also left inspired to pursue futures in STEM fields that contribute to a more sustainable world.
