“The project teaches participating

youth to be problem solvers and
innovators who think outside the

box, all while learning hands-on
skills in engine repair, electrical

systems, hydraulic systems, drive
train systems, and welding. They

also learn skills that have real
world application, including

collaboration, teamwork, budgeting,
patience, and persistence. From an

academic stand point, parameters
have been set that students who

participate in the Rat Rod build
must maintain at least a ‘C’ average

in all core classes at their school. “
