SSES Student Honored for National eSports Achievement at Honor Assembly

At the recent Honor Assembly, Sacramento School of Engineering & Science celebrated a standout achievement in the growing field of competitive gaming. Math teacher and competitive sports faculty advisor Mr. Miyoshi presented student Modesto Ramos with a special award recognizing his accomplishments and national ranking in eSports.

Ramos, a dedicated member of the SSES Scorpion team, currently holds the 26th rank in chess among competitors in the eastern half of the United States. According to Mr. Miyoshi, Ramos competes against a pool of approximately 100 players from various school-based teams across the region.

eSports has rapidly gained traction as a mainstream extracurricular activity in schools and universities nationwide. Beyond the thrill of competition, the program fosters valuable skills such as strategic thinking, communication, and teamwork. It also opens doors to higher education opportunities, with eSports organizations awarding over $10 million in scholarships annually.

Ramos’s recognition highlights both his personal dedication and the school’s commitment to supporting emerging academic and athletic frontiers.

Congratulations Modesto!

GUEST LECTURE SERIES Chuck Andreas Enlightens SSES Students on the Vital Role of Food Preservation Chuck Andreas recently visited the students of SSES to deliver an insightful presentation on the history and modern-day importance of food preservation. His talk emphasized how preserving food is not just a historical necessity but a critical skill in today's unpredictable world. Andreas outlined several scenarios where safe food preservation becomes essential, such as during power outages, when cooking may not be possible, or in emergency situations like evacuations caused by natural disasters. These examples highlighted the practical value of having preserved food readily available when conventional resources are compromised. Delving into the methods of preservation, Andreas introduced students to techniques including pressure canning, food dehydration, and freeze drying. He explained how each method requires specific types of storage containers—ranging from glass jars to plastic and mylar bags—and discussed the benefits of vacuum sealing for long-term storage. The session concluded with an engaging Q&A, where students eagerly asked questions and explored the topic further. Their curiosity and active participation reflected a genuine interest in learning how food preservation can play a vital role in both everyday life and emergency preparedness.

A New Generation of Rebar

One Massachusetts startup is changing the rebar game with a new stainless steel cladding process.
If you see a concrete structure of any kind, be it a building, road, or maybe piece of art, in all likelihood it’s supported by rebar. While there are a few varieties of steel rebar, from the standard steel to epoxy coated, they all suffer from corrosion issues.

Two doctoral graduates from MIT launched a startup called Allium Engineering a few years ago that’s taking aim at that issue by manufacturing steel that’s able to resist corrosion through an innovative stainless steel cladding process. The company says this technology can more than triple the lifetime of key infrastructure such as bridges, which would allow for significant cuts to steel and concrete production, two of the largest carbon dioxide emitting industries.

To share more about Allium, how the company got started and the technology behind it, Allium’s co-founder and CTO Sam McAlpine stopped by for a chat with ASME TechCast.

SSES Guest Speaker Series: DR. GIHAN GAMAGE

The students at Sacramento School of Engineering & Science were treated to our guest speaker, Dr. Gihan Gamage, from NMSU-A. Dr. Gamage is an Assistant Professor of Astronomy and Physics and earned his Ph.D. from the University of North Dakota. His doctoral thesis was on “Multi-Wavelength Analysis of Star Formation in Galaxy Clusters.”

Dr Gamage has also been a lecturer in the Launch Pad lecture series at the New Mexico Space Museum in Alamogordo, NM.

His presentation was on “Light and Astronomers.” This was a real opportunity for the students to learn more about our sun, Earth and its effects with an opportunity to ask questions.

Thank you, Dr Gamage for taking your time to share with our students and participating in our Guest Lecture Series.
