From Ankeny Schools

Ankeny High School students captured half of the six available finalist spots in an April 20th Polk County Housing Trust Fund Design Star Competition to design an affordable home for a fictional Des Moines family.

"We are very proud of our students' efforts," said Engineering Design and Architechtural CAD teacher Rory Vail.  "They've worked very hard for this.  I would like to congratulate the finalists and especially offer a 'job well done' to Sirinia for her outstanding effort." 

AHS junior Sirina Reed was ultimately named the runner-up and won a $500 prize from the Polk County Housing Trust Fund.  Ankeny’s Connor Gatzke and the team of AHS juniors Hunter Brandt and Zach Wolfe were also named finalists in the prestigious competition.  View photos of the competition on the Des Monies Register website.
