The Wire

It's the end of the month already and you know what that means: time to announce the winners of the October MicroProject! The challenge this month was to design a great flyer to recruit new Mouse Squad members at your school. We got a whole stack of great flyers, we wanted to put them all on the wall here at Mouse HQ but there were just too many.

Grand Prize

The grand prize winner this month is tcecorral from Eli Whitney TechCrew / Mouse Squad at Eli Whitney Elementary School in Chicago, IL! She wins a $75 Best Buy gift card for her squad. We loved tcecorral's combination of bright colors, informative text and photos of her squad doing amazing projects!

First Runner Up

The first runner up this month, winning his squad a RadioShack Build-It-Yourself Project kit, is Ben N 625 from Halsey's Mouse Squad at J.H.S. 157 Stephen A. Halsey in Rego Park, Queens, NY! We loved that Ben N 625 showed us a picture of his flyer hanging up at school! We also want to give a shout out to the entire Halsey Mouse Squad for submitting so many projects this month. Great job!
