My kid does Destination Imagination. Started in K and is in MS now. It’s a stem program as well but incorporates a lot of other factors as well.

I know there was one at Rachel Carson back in the day but they only let 30 kids in so my kid didn't apply (not into competition).

Does your HS child participate in a club called TSA (Technology Student Association)? Or does their HS have a chapter? I know there is one at TJ. It is STEM oriented. My child's school does not have one but they are wondering about it. Any experiences good or bad ? Did your child learn anything from the activities/ have fun/ use it for college applications/ was it worth the time and effort? Thanks !
