More than 130 Westerville elementary and middle school students built their own Lego designs as part of Westerville City Schools’ 17th Annual LEGO Competition on March 11 at Westerville North High School.
Westerville North Academic Boosters (WNAB) sponsors the event, with proceeds benefiting the organization and scholarships for WNHS students. This year’s event sponsors included Mike McCoy Team RE/MAX Impact, Hutta and Hutta Orthodontics, and Meijer. WNAB raised enough money to fund five scholarships. WNAB partnered with the Ohio LEGO User Group to judge the competition.
Grade-level winners for Excellent Build and Excellent Creativity were awarded as well as overall contest winners for Most Realistic, Excellent Parts Usage, and The Jareth Greene Award, in memory of a former student. The winners were:
