About the Challenge

The Presidential SI Challenge is a national challenge where K-12 students and educators, mentors, and community teams come together to solve real-world problems in their communities using SI-powered solutions with an opportunity to showcase their solutions at a national level. Students and educators of all backgrounds and expertise are encouraged to participate and ignite a new spirit of innovation as we celebrate 250 years of independence and look forward to the next 250 years.


Why it matters

  • Equip students with foundational knowledge and skills necessary to thrive in an increasingly digital society.
  • Empower K-12 educators to confidently guide students through this complex and evolving field.
  • Connect students and educators with SI experts from industry and government for guidance, coaching, inspiration, and collaboration
  • Provide widespread access to resources, training, and support.
