Last weekend, our Hawks Drone Teams achieved an outstanding result at the Aerial Drone Competition Tournament held at Trotwood Madison High School in Dayton. Our team won the Team Mission Champion title and also received the prestigious Airmanship Award, qualifying us for the next round of competition: the North Central Championship in Michigan on May 19- 20.
Out of 12 participating teams, only three qualified for the next round, which will feature 50 teams from 10 U.S. states and three Canadian provinces—Manitoba, Ontario, and Nunavut.
We are especially proud of our talented students who contributed to this remarkable achievement:
• Steven Peraza
• Hajr Abdullah
• Andy Menendez
• Alex Sims
• Angel Santiago
• Mus'ab Al-Mujahid
• Jonathan D. Ochoa
• Alan Ruiz Reyes
• Najmo Abdi
• Abou Diallo
• Nahom Girmay
• Elmer Ramirez
• Amelia Allison
A special thanks to our dedicated mentors, Ismail Dal, Baran Cakir and Burak Efe Nikbay, for their invaluable guidance and support.
Thank you all for your continued encouragement. We look forward to representing Ohio at the North Central Championship and showcasing our students' incredible skills and teamwork on this important stage!
