Rep. Austin Scott Announces 2025 Congressional App Challenge

WARNER ROBINS, Ga.-- U.S. Representative Austin Scott (GA-08) today announced the start of the 2025 Congressional App Challenge. This annual, nationwide competition engages students’ creativity and encourages their participation in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) fields. "Over the years, many talented students in our district have showcased their advanced skills during the Congressional App Challenge, and I look forward to seeing what participants come up with this year," Rep. Scott said. The Congressional App Challenge allows students to compete with peers throughout their congressional district by creating and exhibiting an original software application, or “app,” for web, PC, tablet, mobile, or other platforms of their choice. The Congressional App Challenge is open to all middle and high school students in Georgia’s Eighth District. Students can form teams, and those entering the competition must submit their app to CongressionalAppChallenge.us by October 30, 2025. The winner will be chosen by a panel of expert judges, featured on the Congressional App Challenge website, and displayed in the U.S. Capitol Building. More information can be found here . ###
