  • A 'Magical' Finish

    Cordill-Mason Elementary is celebrating a $25,000 grant for STEM education after its project “Magical Me” took second place at the annual Burns & McDonnell Battle of the Brains. The CME team was one of 20 finalists in this year’s event, as were teams from Blue Springs High School and Delta Woods Middle School. The winners were unveiled today in a ceremony at Union Station in Kansas City. The 20 finalists were selected by engineers at Burns & McDonnell and Science City for their creativity and interactivity. A public online voting period, which counted for 30 percent of the final results, drew about 75,000 votes. The CME team celebrated a fantastic finish and the $25,000 prize. “The caliber of ideas coming from students in the Kansas City area is mind-blowing,” said Burns & McDonnell CEO Ray Kowalik. “These are future engineers, architects and startup professionals. These kids are innovators today, and I can’t wait to see how they lead our great city — and perhaps our nation — tomorrow.” Congratulations to all of our Battle of the Brains participants.
