MESA Day is Friday, May 16th, 2025 at Viking Pavilion. It is *not* open to the public.
Parents can reach out to their students' teacher to chaperone, or sign up to volunteer:
April 11th - All enrollment forms (SPN Form) for MESA students must be submitted.
Students who do not have enrollment forms on file are not permitted to attend.
May 12th - Deadline for students to submit their Design Proposals, Commitment Forms and pre-recorded Zoom pitches.
Create a design proposal using this template.
Pre-record a technical pitch via a recorded zoom meeting. Recordings should take place in a quiet space and should be a live pitch, so no video post production, etc.
Compile items for submission. Make a copy of this slide deck and customize it for the team’s project. This mirrors the submission process for the national competition so it is good practice for our teams competing for state.
Email slide deck to ormesa@pdx.edu by Monday, 12th, at 8am.
Submit Nationals Commitment form by Monday, May 12 at 8am
Create a poster using this template. Bring poster and device to MESA Day on Friday, May 16, 2025.

If you're under 18 you don't need to worry about the message below
Note: If you do win at the state competition, to be able to smoothly get through airport security, you will need a Real ID. A passport will also work just as well but if you do not have a passport you will need to get a Real ID:
"A REAL ID is a state-issued driver’s license, permit or identification card that is also a federally accepted form of identification. Beginning May 7, 2025, everyone 18 and older must show REAL ID or other federally accepted identification at...TSA...It can take up to three weeks to receive your REAL ID in the mail, so allow enough time to get one before boarding a plane."
