Adair County FPS team from ACES/JAIS makes State Finals Team of Lauren Talley, Easton Turner, Wes Stone, and Lauren McQuaide will be one of only 15 in Junior Division Future Problem Solving statewide Special ColumbiaMagazine.com story As results from KAAC evaluating were announced at the end of the week of January 24-29, the Adair County school district was named one of only 15 Kentucky State Finalists in Junior Division Future Problem Solving statewide. The team was represented by 6th graders Lauren Talley, Easton Turner, and Wes Stone from Adair County Elementary School and 5th grader Lauren McQuaide from John Adair Intermediate School. These students competed against over 60 teams from across the state to earn qualification for State Finals competition. The team practiced during the Fall semester and competed in early December. Their topic for the event was Air Transport in which they had to prepare to complete a 6-step process that involved identifying a number of possible challenges and problems related to an incident projected in a scenario set over 25 years into the future. A set of solutions and a plan of action then had to be devised based on the scenario, and all in under two hour's time. The team will now advance to State Finals on March 12-14, 2011, in Lexington, KY, where they hope to be joined by fellow Adair County Future Problem Solver teammates at the middle school and high school level.This is only the second year that Adair County has entered a Junior Division team. Two years ago, Adair County Elementary advanced to State Finals in its first ever attempt. This year is a return to the event after not assembling a team last year.
