Dear Teachers and Administrators,

I’m excited to invite your middle and high school students in North Carolina’s 7th Congressional District to display their coding skills by participating in the 2023 Congressional App Challenge! This annual competition encourages middle and high school students to learn how to code by creating their own applications, allowing students to showcase their skills in programming and computer science while supporting the next generation of STEM leaders.

The winner from the 7th Congressional District, chosen by a panel of judges, will be featured on CongressionalAppChallenge.us. The winning app will also be eligible to be on display in the U.S. Capitol, honoring winners from across the country.

Eligibility

To be eligible to participate in the Congressional App Challenge, you must be a middle or high school student at the time of app submission.
Students may register as individuals or as teams of up to four. No more than four students are allowed on a team.
Students may compete in the district they reside in or the district they attend school in.
If competing as a team, at least half of the teammates must be eligible to compete in the district in which they are participating in.
