MS TSA at CODCA
Technology Student Association: A STEM Club
What is TSA at CODCA MS
TSA is an organization that focuses on STEM - science, technology, engineering and math. MS TSA at CODCA is comprised of monthly virtual meetings where we discuss topics and complete projects in the STEM field. It focuses on creativity and ingenuity to solve problems and accomplish tasks. We emphasize teamwork and communication throughout the projects we complete. Students also have a chance to participate in competitions, attend state TSA conference and attend other face to face events related to STEM.
Looking Forward: TSA Events

STEM Secret Challenge Event
Come challenge yourself and test your engineering skills at our annual STEM secret challenge. You will be given a secret task and the materials to design and create in order to accomplish the task. Use teamwork and your communication skills to solve the secret STEM challenge.
Previous TSA STEM Activities at CODCA
2023/2024 Secret STEM Challenge
Students were given the challenge to create a vehicle with a minimum of 3 wheels that is solely powered by a balloon.
2022/2023 Secret STEM Challenge
How do you make a balloon travel along a string in one direction? What about making it go in one direction and then have it come back on the same release? Students challenged themselves to develop a device that would travel on a string using simple materials they were given.
Minecraft Education
At virtual meetings, students had the opportunity to work together to solve tasks and problems they were assigned in Minecraft Education. I look forward to using this more in out virtual meetings to come.
