Fredericksburg, VA (PRWEB) May 19, 2014 - Engineering For Kids, the beloved science, technology, engineering, and math program, is excited to announce that the company has awarded its 100th franchise. The newest franchise, located in Lakeland, Florida, marks an achievement that has surpassed the expectations set by CEO Dori Roberts, "This has been an amazing accomplishment that was unexpected in less than three years of franchising. We are very proud of our franchisees who are inspiring the next generation of engineers." Engineering For Kids is now inspiring in 26 states and 9 different countries. 

Founded in July of 2009, Engineering For Kids first began offering its programs to young engineers in Northern Virginia.

Ready to Rock-et!

Engineering for Kids has just launched a new contest in which kids (and kids at heart) are asked to channel their inner engineers to create a model rocket that's out of this world! The competition is called "Ready to Rocket" and will be taking photo submissions through the month of March.

Each entrant will receive an EFK t-shirt and their photos will be posted on the EFK Facebook page for a three-week voting process. The entry with the top votes will win its engineer a LEGO Mindstorms NXT 2.0, a computer programmable robot that transforms into 4 different modules.

The contest comes at the perfect time of year, when students on Spring Break will have an amazing project to work on and a prize to work towards. We're very excited to see what our fans come up with.
