  • (Sentinel photo by Magdalene Landegent) Erin Kommes and Bryton Martin, eighth graders at LCS, put the finishing touches on their solar car before sending it off on the trial run. Students in Rose Klein's class designed and built solar cars and had to prove them by running them about 30 yards on the track.
  • (Sentinel photo by Magdalene Landegent) Jordan Helms and Jessica Wilken, eighth graders, troubleshoot on their solar car after it stopped halfway down the track during a trial run. Students in Rose Klein's class at Le Mars Community School designed and built their own solar cars.
  • (Sentinel photo by Magdalene Landegent) Susie Haack and David Hernandez, both eighth graders at Le Mars Community Schools, work together to prepare their solar car for a trial run on the track.
  • (Sentinel photo by Magdalene Landegent) Riley Shilmoeller and Gabby Gearke, eighth graders, prepare to send their solar car speeding down the track during an experiement in Rose Klein's class. The simple design included a large, flat solar panel on top of the "car."
