Science Olympiad is a STEM  competition club composed of one Varsity and two JV Teams.

• Each team consists of 15 members. 

Teams compete in 23 events covering topics in chemistry, biology, engineering, physics , and more! 

• Some events are test based, some require students to build a device, and some are a blend of the two. 

• Each competitor selects three events at the beginning of the school year and works with a partner to prepare to compete in those events through research, study, practice, and construction. 

The first competition is the regional tournament at Seaforth High School January 31st, 2026. 

• If the Varsity team places top three in the region, the Varsity team will compete in the state tournament in April.  

• The top two varsity teams in North Carolina go to the national tournament.

Practice and team meetings usually take place during our 45 minute SMART Lunch.  

• Our first meeting will be after school because SMART Lunch does not start until the third week of school.

• Experiments and practices that require more time may need to take place after school .  Mr Roberts is often available after school if members .

We also have a Science Olympiad Class!

• Every fall we have a class dedicated to Science Olympiad. Students get 80 minutes a day to study and prepare, giving us a huge advantage at competition.
