A group of young engineers at Wethersfield High School is developing quite the reputation. For the second year in a row, the WHS Junior Engineering Technical Society team was one of five teams that earned a spot in the finals of National Engineering Design Challenge in Washington, D.C.
JETS teams from around the country were tasked with designing a product that would help improve the lives of people with disabilities. Wethersfield's team of nine students created a product called the Walken, which is a walker that can easily go up stairs. |
