FCSTC Announcement

Dear Students and Parents,

Due to inclement weather, Fulton County Schools has canceled all extracurricular activities scheduled for Saturday, January 11th, 2025. As a result, the 2024-2025 Fulton County Student Technology Competition will now take place on Saturday, February 1, 2025, at Riverwood High School. The event will maintain the same schedule and will be held in person.

We will provide additional details as the new date approaches. Please direct all questions to your local school liaisons after January 24, 2025. We appreciate your understanding and flexibility, and we look forward to seeing our students showcase their projects in February.

Thank you for your continued support.

Warm regards,

The FCS Student Technology Competition Committee

New for FCSTC & GaSTC this year
