We’re proud to spotlight MPS students from Montgomery Preparatory Academy for Career Technologies (MPACT) participating in the 2025 Congressional App Challenge—a national STEM competition where middle and high school students design original software applications to solve real-world problems.
These scholars represent the innovation, creativity, and future-ready skills being developed across Montgomery Public Schools. Congressman Shomari Figures celebrated their work with a special reception.
