See Ms. Sookdeo to Participate. Meetings to sign up will be announced in the Fall.
(Room 6-121)
(Team size is limited but you can be an alternate. Teams are 4-5 students)
Science Olympiad competitions are like academic track meets, consisting of a series of 23 team events in each division (Division B is middle school; Division C is high school). Each year, a portion of the events are rotated to reflect the ever-changing nature of genetics, earth science, chemistry, anatomy, physics, geology, mechanical engineering and technology. By combining events from all disciplines. Emphasis is placed on active, hands-on group participation.
See Ms. Sookdeo to Participate. Meetings to sign up will be announced in the Fall. (Room 6-121)
(Team size is limited to 15 participants)
We will be participating in the SECME competition in 2025
A few areas to consider: Banner, Bridge, Egg Drop, Energy Transfer Machine, Essay, Glider, Math, Mousetrap Car, Poster, & Water Bottle Rockets

Math Field Day
A competition between the Sumter County High School Math Teams. The competition consists of 4 rounds to include an individual test, team round, combo (a math card game), and Smath (another math game similar to Scrabble). The content levels for the individual and team rounds range from Geometry, Algebra 2, Precalculus, and Calculus. Practices are held for the month leading up to the event in the Spring.
See Mrs. Thomas for more information to join the 2025 Team!

VHS Envirothon Team Winners
The Nature Coast Regional Envirothon is a competitive, problem-solving contest for high school students, which challenges their knowledge of the environment. This event is an educational program involving Citrus, Hernando, Pasco, and Sumter counties in a “hands-on” site-specific experience with natural resource information. Five natural resource areas are covered: aquatics, forestry, soils, wildlife, and a current environmental issue. High school students in any grade with a strong desire to learn more about science and the environment are encouraged to compete.
Five teams with 5-6 members per school are allowed (one member is an alternate). One team leader must fill out the signup form for their team.
Meetings begin in September of each school year twice a month on Thursdays. Students will receive their study materials and receive the proper training. (Here's the signup link). The competition is normally held the second week in February. See Ms. Vinas if you have any questions. (Room 5-118)
This website is designed to be the go-to source of all information for science research projects.
If you have additional questions, please seek help from your science teacher.
