Caption: Linda Resendez, a junior at USHS, was the representative for her team of seven students at the rollercoaster exhibition. Their creation was the "Nightmare" rollercoaster, inspired by "Nightmare On Elm Street" movies.
United South High School TAKS Science teams dedicated their time and effort to build roller coasters out of popsicle sticks and other materials.
Each student "team" was comprised of a construction engineer, design engineer, and promotional engineer.
All 33 entries were on display for judging by campus teachers. Building roller coasters in teams gave students an opportunity to apply their individual expertise to projects. The exercise was also designed to help reinforce knowledge gained in their Science classes.
