  • COMPETITIONS
    For applicable grade levels, Elementary School is grades 4th - 6th, Middle School is grades 7th - 8th, High School is grades 9th - 12th.  If a school is a Jr/Sr High, grades 7th - 12th, they may utilize the Middle School and High School allowable number of entries but the teams must to be composed of either middle school or high school students only.  

    CHAPERONES
    For each competition the school is participating in, there MUST be a designated chaperone/coach that will remain with the school's competition team(s) throughout the day (i.e., the school has 5 coding teams and 2 drone teams then they will have 2 adult chaperones participating for the day).  There will NOT be additional chaperones allowed as capacity is limited.  

    TRANSPORTATION
     For BPS schools, BPS bus transportation may be available.  Work with your school's designee for arranging transportation through your area's transportation office.
