They attended and actively participated in the SA Smart Challenge Competition Clinic today (January 23, 2026), kicking off their journey in this exciting Mayor's K-12 Smart City Challenge.
In the SA Smart Challenge, student teams research real San Antonio-specific problems and propose innovative solutions—like strategies, products, or services (often powered by AI)—to improve quality of life in areas such as transportation, health care access, housing, sustainability, and more.
These young innovators are learning valuable STEM/STEAM skills through hands-on project-based learning, collaborating with mentors and professionals, and building their Research Pitch Decks for the competition ahead.
Proud of our HMS Braves for representing our school and community in this inspiring program!
