Thank you for your interest in Stark Idea Quest 2027
Stark Idea Quest is a 9-week community-focused project designed to help middle schoolers create and launch ideas that will help our community thrive. This year’s Stark Idea Quest competition invites teams of middle school students from across Stark County to create an actionable project that will help people in your community, and join the competition to get funding to put their idea into action. Thanks to generous community support, this year, every team invited to the culminating Summit in March will receive funding for their ideas!
Schools can use the Stark Idea Quest as an in-class project or as a club project for select students. Ultimately, each participating school will send 1 team of 5-10 students to share an idea at the culminating Idea Incubator Summit at the Akron-Canton Airport on Wednesday, March 17! At the Idea Incubator Summit, teams will pitch their ideas to judges and community partners as they compete for seed money and gain support from local organizations to help make their ideas a reality!
Spots are limited to 15 participating middle schools.
Please register your team by Friday, December 11th!
