TARC

The Team America Rocketry Challenge (TARC) is an extra-curricular hands-on project-based learning program. The TARC competition is modeled around the aerospace industry’s design, fabrication and testing processes. All students participate in a team of 3-10 students to design, build, and fly a rocket. Each year a unique task is also included. TARC gives students opportunities to apply their math and science skills to a real world project outside of the classroom. For many students, this experience yields their first significant personal realization of how what they are learning in school is relevant to endeavors that are fun, challenging, & represent potential future career pathways.
