Colville High School’s Rocket Club has reached new heights! 🚀
Under the guidance of advisors Jim Christian and Jared Bateman, this talented group of students earned a spot among the top 100 teams in the nation out of 1,107 teams competing in the 2026 American Rocketry Challenge. They will travel to Washington, D.C. this May to compete in the 2026 National Rocketry Challenge. This incredible accomplishment reflects months of dedication, teamwork, and problem-solving. https://www.rocketrychallenge.org/result/2026-finalists/
Congratulations to Vincent Fazzari, Luke Bateman, Cruz Bateman, Carrie Pecsenyicki, Euzhene Roy, Gabe Harper, Zach Harper, Kellan Horrocks, Cade Bateman, and Zack Bateman. Your hard work has truly taken off, and we couldn’t be more proud of how you’re representing CHS!
As they prepare for the journey ahead, the team is continuing to work on final details for their trip. We are grateful to our community for the continued support of our schools, including the recent levy passage, which helps make opportunities like these possible.
