Unfortunate it's just for HS students. I know my University's website could do with a lick of paint.

But great to see a competition for high school students to get into, something for them to show off their skills! I would've loved if my secondary school or college (UK here) did something like this!

It's a bit late for you to enter, unfortunately, but the UK does have something like this. I had the great pleasure of sponsoring a team in the Young Rewired State "Festival of Code" [1] in 2012 - which is open to 13-18 year old students and runs for a week in August.

If you're interested they are always looking for both sponsors (which basically means giving up a meeting room in your office for the week, and providing lunch for the team) and mentors [2] - who can spend some time with the team helping them shape their idea. It's a brilliant scheme, and a really inspiring week.
