The 2024 Congressional App Challenge is now accepting applications, inviting middle and high school students across Wyoming to participate in this nationwide competition. The challenge aims to help students learn coding skills and explore opportunities within the STEM and computer science fields.

The Congressional App Challenge is the official computer science competition of the House of Representatives. Since its inception in 2013, it has grown significantly, with over 50,000 students participating across 374 Congressional Districts in all 50 states and five U.S. territories.

Representative Hageman expressed enthusiasm for the event: “I’m excited to invite Wyoming students to participate in the 2024 Congressional App Challenge. This is a great competition that allows students to showcase their skills in programming and computer science and supports the next generation of STEM leaders.”

Winning apps will be announced in December 2024 and featured on the U.S. House of Representatives website as well as in the U.S. Capitol Building. Applications are due by October 24, 2024, at 10 AM MT. For more information about rules, prizes, and registration details, visit congressionalappchallenge.us/students/student-registration/.
