Samsung Solve for Tomorrow Competition

As students are welcomed back into the classroom, consider learning about and applying to be a part of the 15th annual Samsung Solve for Tomorrow competition! 

This nationwide STEM competition can fit into any school curriculum and invites public school students in grades 6-12, guided by their teachers to think outside the box and make a true difference in their community using STEM, with a chance to win technology and classroom supplies along the way!

Entering the competition is very simple, only takes a few minutes, and all you need is one idea! You can find some inspiration from past winners here as well as reference the ideas below, broken down by school subjects!

  • Science classrooms: Recycling or waste issues, food insecurity, environmental destruction
  • Math classrooms: Financial literacy, living wage, predicting rates of climate change
  • Social Studies classrooms: Transportation safety, voter turnout, elder care
  • English classrooms: Literacy rates, access to books, education in underserved communities
  • Business and elective classrooms: Fire safety, mental health, public safety

Now through Thursday, October 24th, teachers can submit their application by answering three simple questions.
