<span style="font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-wrap;">In Spring of 2016, due Due to our massive successin the Spring of 2016, Open Minds was approached by member of the Colonial School District to implement a similar version of our current Open Minds Competition. The goal was to conducted it in a way&nbsp;that was more comprehensive and welcoming to high school student. As consequence, although, this was the very first instance in which this particular set of student had ever been exposed to innovation at first hand. Overall, the student’s response was very positive and enthusiastic, which we believe means they wanted to learn more what is innovation and how it happens. As a matter fact, several student that participated, ask members of the High School Colonial School District that they want to participate in another Open Minds Competition. For the high School students Open Minds was their one in a life time opportunity to put into practice what they learn classroom setting and apply it in real life.</span>
