Science Olympiad

Science Olympiad is a team-based competition where 15 students from a school work together on 23 different science events against other schools.  The events cover many different science disciplines, some based on study and books, others based on hands-on engineering and building.  Practice occurs throughout the year.  Competitions last all day and end with an Olympic-style awards ceremony, complete with medals and trophies.  A team can qualify at their regional tournament for the state competition.  At the state competition, teams compete for a chance to go to the national competition against the best-of-the-best from other states.  Students learn hard work, teamwork, fun and laughter, and a lot of science.
