Palwaukee Cadets (IL-049) Take 3rd in the CyberPatriot Competition.

CyberPatriot is the premiere national high school cyber defense competition created to inspire high school students toward careers in cybersecurity or other science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) disciplines critical to our nation’s future. The competition was conceived by the Air Force Association.

Palwaukee’s high school CyberPatriot team took 3rd place in IL State Competition. This was the first time that Palwaukee participated in the CyberPatriot program.

This event challenged our cadets with logic, patience, perseverance, teamwork and judgment. Participating meant the cadets had to commit additional hours in studying and training sessions when they would rather be home or with their friends. Our cadets showed responsibility and confidence under the stressful tournament 6 hours, especially when the internet would slow down and other problems manifested themselves beyond the control of the cadets or the contest organizers.

Outstanding work by our CyberPatriot team. We are all very proud of our cadets
