Tyler Broussard, an eighth grader at East John P. Powell Magnet School, achieved great success at the Greater East Alabama Regional Science and Engineering Fair (GREASF) on February 23, 2024. She secured third place in the competition and went on to compete in the Alabama Science and Engineering Fair (ASEF) in the junior division for middle school students in grades 6th-8th. Her project titled “Lights On” was in the Robotics and Intelligent Machines category.

At the ASEF competition, Tyler was honored with the Broadcom Award for Coding with Commitment. This recognition came with a $250 gift card and a Raspberry Pi kit.
