On May 14th, 2008, 9 car teams in the Algebra II PAP
classes at Harlingen South High School became the first ever to run in
The Pedaled Boxcar Challenge. They ranged from modified tricycles turned
cars, to PVC based creations, to hot rods formed with fire and steel
from the minds of some of the brightest 16 and 17 year olds our city has
to offer. And from among these sharp minds, some very fast cars emerged
to compete in this now classic race at our school. We definitely had some
help getting this show off the ground. Some of the former students who
went through the Algebra II PAP program helped make this event a
success. Some of these students include Carolina, John, Marrah, Jackie,
Clarissa, Nicole, Michael, and of course Kara. |
