Wilson K-8 School is one of five finalists representing Arizona in a nationwide science, technology, engineering, arts and math contest by Samsung.
There are 255 state finalists in the Samsung Solve for Tomorrow contest, which calls on students to solve problems in the real world or their community using STEAM skills.
Wilson K-8 and other state finalists were chosen based on their creative proposals. The school now has to create a lesson plan that can put their ideas into action.
Wilson K-8โs proposal was to create compost containers from upcycled materials.
The final prize of the contest is $2 million.
