PS Kids Excel at Annual KidWind Challenge

InstagramNews February 21, 2026

The KidWind turbine challenge in Vallejo was an incredible showcase of creativity and determination from our students. One of our teams earned the top overall score in the competition, leading the middle school division and even outperforming every high school entry. Another team followed closely behind with an equally impressive finish. Throughout the day, students tested ideas, made thoughtful adjustments, and improved their designs with each round. It was an energizing day of learning and teamwork, and our students represented PS with pride! 💨

Special thanks to our Avis colab teacher, David G, for working with the kids and accompanying them to the event!
