St. Croix Prep FIRST Lego League 'Batgirls' Build Bat House
As a part of FIRST Lego League's competition theme, City Shaper, teams had the challenge of "identifying a problem with a building or public space in their community". The Batgirls (Sofia Duran, Violet Olson and Emma Peterson) researched bats, the declining population in the area and the value they bring to the community such as how bats can help pollinate the prairie. The girls made a bat house and installed it on a tree northwest of the Auxiliary Gym.

Congratulations to the Batgirls for their innovative and resourceful approach to improving our school property!
