👏🚀Maharishi School’s rocketry team has bee 👏🚀Maharishi School’s rocketry team has been blazing a path of excellence ever since the team finished fourth at a national competition in 2017.👏🚀 👏🚀Each year, the team has made steady improvements to the design of its rockets, and this year has been honored for putting together one of the best presentations on its design.👏🚀 👏🚀The American Rocketry Challenge — known by its abbreviation TARC — hosts a 15-minute, 20-slide contest featuring a panel of expert rocketry judges. More than 600 teams entered the contest this year, and five teams were selected to do a live presentation based on their 20-slide entry. Maharishi School was among the five to be selected for the finals.👏🚀 👏🚀Maharishi School’s rocketry team adviser Rick Rudloff, who teaches at the school, said many of the rockets in the competition will look similar from school to school. However, it’s all the parts inside the rocket hidden from view that give Maharishi School an edge over its competitors.👏🚀 👏🚀Rudloff said the students have designed a device that holds an altimeter (device used to measure altitude) securely in place in the rocket’s nose. Before, the students held the altimeter in place by drilling holes in the side of the rocket and inserting pins, but over time the holes got bigger, and they affected the rocket’s flight. The new design solves that problem because it doesn’t weaken the body of the rocket.👏🚀 👏🚀Congratulations to the Rocketry Team for all their hard work this year!🚀👏 #rocketryteam #maharishischool #maharishischooliowa #maharishischoolrocketry #maharishischoolstudents #rocketryinschool #rocketryiniowa #americanrocketrychallenge #nationalfinalistsrocketry

🤩"Matthew is a bright, articulate student with 🤩"Matthew is a bright, articulate student with a great sense of humor. Born in Iowa but mostly raised in Korea, he is a textbook example of a Third Culture Kid--someone who identifies with more than one culture and therefore is most at home with other students who have also lived "between worlds." This has made Matthew a perfect fit for our school, as he served as an ambassador and peacemaker in the dorm as well as in his classes."🤩 🤩"A strong student, athlete, and accomplished musician, Matthew works hard at everything he undertakes and uses his gifts to serve others. He will enroll in the University of Iowa next fall as a pre-med major, so we hope he comes back to visit once in a while!"🤩 -Kaye Jacob ❤️ #seniors2021 #maharishischool #maharishischooliowa #maharishischoolseniors #graduates2021 #graduatingseniors #wordsfromtheirteachers #studentappreciation #wordsofiñspiration #inspiring #kindandloving #maharishischoolstudents #maharishischoolcommunity
