Mike Kelly (R-PA) announced today that the 2024 Congressional App Challenge is open to all eligible high school students in Pennsylvania's 16th Congressional District. Teachers across Western Pennsylvania are encouraged to have their students participate. The deadline for students to submit their app online is October 24, 2024. However, students are encouraged to register online before September 30, 2024. The competition is open to all students who meet the eligibility requirements, regardless of coding experience. "This contest is a great way for students pursuing a career in engineering or computer science to showcase their skills and to put into practice what they have learned in the classroom," Rep. Kelly said. "STEM is an incredibly important part of a student's education as they prepare for college and the workforce. I encourage all eligible students in the 16th Congressional District to participate and test their skills." Below are some of the criteria to participate in this 2024 Congressional App Challenge: You must be a middle or high school student at the time of app submission. Students may register as individuals or as teams of up to four. No more than four students are allowed to form a team. Students may compete in the district they reside in or the district they attend school in. If competing as a team, at least half of the teammates must be eligible to compete in the district in which they are participating in.
