Winners Announcement
Hey everyone!
The judges have been working hard going through each project and scoring them. The current plan is to call the winners down tomorrow during school. While this is subject to change if something happens that prevents announcing, that is the current plan and very likely to occur. Once the winners have been called down, the website gallery will update at 3:00 pm so the winning projects can be viewed publicly.
Even though the competition is over, happy coding!
