This competition gave students several months to develop their own software application. The winning app in the Fourth Congressional District was designed by Etash Kalra, a sophomore at Douglas County High School. Etash developed “Spell Me,” an iOS-based app that assists students in studying spelling words by allowing them to participate in a virtual spelling bee or spelling test. “I’m so proud of Etash and all the students who participated in the Congressional App Challenge this year,” Congressman Ken Buck stated. “STEM education is so important to our nation’s future, and I’m confident these student participants will play key roles in America’s success.” App Challenge winners will be invited to Washington D.C. for #HouseOfCode, a chance to present their apps to Members of Congress and the tech community. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
