We're in the home stretch for The Congressional App Challenge.

Every year we challenge students in DeKalb County School District, Gwinnett County Public Schools, Rockdale County Public Schools and Newton County Schools to create and submit their original apps for a chance to win the Congressional App Challenge (CAC).

Each year we publicly recognize our winning teams and each winning app may be put on display in the U.S. Capitol Building for one year.

Additional prizes are available. The Congressional Internet Caucus initiates the annual CAC.

If you have any questions surrounding the App Challenge visit https://www.congressionalappchallenge.us/students/student-registration/ or call 770-987-2291.


It's In DeKalb
