American Rocketry Challenge

The American Rocketry Challenge is a national student rocketry competition in which teams design, build, test, and launch model rockets to meet specified altitude and flight-duration requirements. It is aimed at middle and high school students and provides hands-on engineering experience, teamwork, and leadership development. The program runs yearlong with resources, handbooks, and team support provided to participating teams.

Students in grades 6-12 (middle and high school) may form teams to compete.

Teams register online via the official competition registration portal.
