It's one of the oldest, and definitely the coldest tradition going at QUEST-the annual Sled Race! Today the students who have spent months working on their vehicles put them to the test against one another and the elements. Congratulations to this year's winners:
The Primary Level champ was the Charmander created by Mrs. Langswager's class
The Elementary Level champ was the Volcanis created by Gauge Camp, Alden Kenig and Wyatt Werner from Mrs. PJ's class
The Intermediate Level champ was the Flight Simulator created by Andrew Stickney from Mrs. Healey's class-who also went on to win the title of Grand Champion!
Here are some pictures from today's races: https://hiltonschools.smugmug.com/2025-2026/QUEST/Sled-Race
