Mobile App Challenege
NGLA strives to provide students in grades 3–12 with the opportunity to explore STEM through a fun, hands-on program. Using a project-based approach, students learn the fundamentals of engineering and computer science by working on projects (called challenges) designed by APL and the National MESA organization.
Mathcounts
We make learning math fun. We believe middle school is a critical juncture when a love of math must be encouraged, and a fear of math must be overcome. Our programs build problem solving skills and positive attitudes about math, so students embrace challenges and expand their academic and career opportunities in the future.
Aerial Drone Competition
The Aerial Drone Competition is an engaging educational event centered on hands-on learning. Teams explore drones, flight principles, programming, documentation, and communication skills, fostering interest in drone-related careers.
