Cutting-edge creations

Seneca Valley robotics and engineering students were joined by other schools from southwestern Pennsylvania for the annual Sea, Air and Land Challenge, held at the senior high school on April 30.

Hosted by the Penn State Applied Research Laboratory, the Sea, Air and Land Challenge is a STEM initiative in which teams of high school and/or middle school students design and build robotic vehicles which are used to compete in challenges that mimic missions encountered by the military, national security agencies and first responders.

The challenges took place in various locations throughout Seneca Valley Senior High School where students put their creativity, problem-solving and engineering skills to the test, navigating unpredictable courses with the vehicles they engineered from the ground up.
