Tyler Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: TYL) announced today the three winning teams of its annual Tyler Technologies Maine App Challenge. The contest provides Maine high school students with the opportunity to explore the world of software design and development by building a mobile application.

“We are proud to celebrate the outstanding talent of this year’s Maine App Challenge winners,” said Chris Webster, president of Tyler’s ERP & Civic Division. “It’s our hope that this recognition inspires them to pursue careers in STEM and make the most of this valuable scholarship. We’re honored to continue supporting such bright and innovative students.”

This year’s winners are:

• First place: Eugene Irving Frost of Mountain Valley High School created Prospect: Re-Appraisal, an accessible, yet challenging game featuring original art and music.

• Second place: Everett Hurder of Gorham High School created StudyBuddy, an app integrated with Google Classroom to allow students to easily track their course progress.

• Third place: Oliver Emerson of Gorham High School created Investment Investigator, a personalized tool that suggests interest-bearing account investments.

The winners received scholarships totaling $10,000 in 529 college savings plans, presented at Tyler’s awards ceremony on May 3 at Tyler’s Yarmouth, Maine, office. Tyler awarded $500 to Deering High School in Portland for having the most teams or individuals submitting an eligible entry.

Tyler collaborated with the Foster Center for Innovation at the University of Maine to host a series of free workshops for students to help with brainstorming, prototyping, and testing their applications. Tyler also partnered with the University of Maine on its Fundamentals of Innovation (INV121) course available online to high school students as an early college course that allows them to earn college credits while designing an app submission for the Maine App Challenge.

The Maine App Challenge introduces students to STEM-related disciplines and supports the notion that these students can excel in this field while remaining in Maine.
