Colquitt County School System Pauses In-Person Instruction

In December 2019, Doerun Elementary took a group of BETA club students to Savannah to compete in the BETA state competition. The 4th and 5th grade students that made up the engineering team placed 2nd in the state with bridge building. This summer the engineering team worked to complete a virtual submission to the National Beta Competition. They placed 6th in the nation. There were over 12,000 participants involved in the National BETA competition.

The team is composed of Leelan Hall, McKennon Demott, Josiah Pitts, Elizabeth Bolin, Chloe Stallings, and Emily Martin. BETA club sponsors for the 2019-2020 school year Mrs. Melinda Springman, and Mrs. Christi Williford. Congratulations to Doerun Elementary BETA Club!
