Congratulations to Stratford’s 2024 Future City Engineering Competition Award-Winners!
At this year’s Future City Engineering Competition, Stratford School teams received 20 total awards for their visionary city designs, with Stratford Fremont Middle School’s New Goldhaven team taking home the 1st place trophy! Stratford Preparatory Blackford’s Botalecce Bay team was awarded third place, Stratford San Jose Middle School’s Electreecity team placed fifth, and 17 additional Stratford School teams received awards for innovation and design (see a complete list of winners below). Kudos to all of our Stratford students and to our teachers who helped guide them in this impressive engineering endeavor! We salute your hard work, ingenuity, and willingness to take on this challenge. Your inventive ideas will continue to move our futures forward in a positive direction.
About the Future City Competition
This year’s exciting NorCal Future City Competition took place on Saturday, January 20, 2024, at our own Stratford Preparatory Blackford campus. Middle School students from schools throughout the Bay Area came to present their future city projects and show off their innovative spirit and keen engineering skills.
Stratford’s seventh and eighth-grade engineering students undertook the challenge “Electrify Your Future.” Guided by the engineering design process, students developed futuristic cities, implementing project management methods to ensure project coherence. The competition involved writing city description essays, designing two-dimensional city maps, and constructing models using recycled materials. Deliverables detailing electrification solutions were submitted, and teams presented their futuristic cities to judges, who graded their descriptions, models, and presentations.
