Teams of students in grades 5-9 from around the country have designed STEM projects that address biodiversity issues for the OurEcho Challenge hosted by Earth Echo International. The Longmont-based team, Fungi Frogs, has been announced as a finalist for a $5,000 grant.
Trevor White, 16, Blake Wolver, 15 and Reed Sneider, 11 are students in the St. Vrain Valley School District and although they hadn’t met before their frog project, their similar interest in protecting the environment joined them together.
