Kelly Announces First District Congressional App Challenge Winners

Washington, December 12, 2023
WASHINGTON - U.S. Congressman Trent Kelly is pleased to announce the winners of Mississippi's 1st Congressional District 2023 Congressional App Challenge (CAC), a competition designed to encourage student participation in computer science and coding. Oxford High School students Riley Gray, Jack Speed, and Dylan Wishon created their app called "Life Lesson." It is designed to reduce the amount of time a student spends on social media. The app boots a teenager off social media and redirects them to a learning space. In this space, the student can learn a variety of skills through the study of a given subject. The lesson is followed by a quiz. The student must score a B or higher to gain more time on social media. 

The winners will be featured on CongressionalAppChallenge.us. The winning app will also be eligible to be on display in the U.S. Capitol, honoring the winners from across the country.
For more information, please visit CongressionalAppChallenge.us, email StudentSupport@CongressionalAppChallenge.us, or contact Team Kelly's competition liaison Melinda.Whited@mail.house.gov.
